Summary07545: Use a dedicated template engine
Description

Templating is great, but there's no reason that Limesurvey should have its own.

Additional Information

A possible solution: Use TWIG or Smarty in LS2
Both Twig (http://twig.sensiolabs.org/) and Smarty (http://www.smarty.net/) are dedicated template engines in PHP that can be used as the V part of a MVC framework. They're fast and support caching. Both use a decorator design pattern, much more flexible that the traditional set of "includes" that force the designer to add all sorts of "if" statements in a complex environment.
