That makes sense, but why does parsing need to change the source
when I simply save the template in Zope?  I can see the output
changing on rendering, but why when it's saved?  Sure, you
should parse the text for errors, but leave the original text as
it was and add an error message.  Or does the text need to be
parsed to be allowed to be saved?
