viewengine

Recently I created a spike of a view engine, in which views are plain classes, and the content is created by using funny using-scope blocks.

The code together with a simple sample site is available at http://code.google.com/p/sharp-view-engine/

Here I'd like to hear your opinions regarding such an idea. Is it completely weird or maybe someone likes it?
