Yeah... That's my experience as well.

"Hummm, this string technology was meant for static webpages :( I think the solution is to create an arbitrary sub-language and add more string bits to it to make it dynamic" is more adapted when you quickly want to add a few dynamic behaviors to an existing static template here and there, but not so much when you build a complex app from the ground up.

Not to mention these opaque strings suck when you are serious about using a typed language :)
