Hello,

You must be kidding. Consider the following snippet:

   # key: <s
   # --
   #+begin_src $1
   $0
   #+end_src

In a buffer, "<s" and TAB lets me insert the language and possible
header arguments, then another TAB puts point within the block.

Note that by changing "$1" into "${1:emacs-lisp}", you can even default
to emacs-lisp block if you use "<s" TAB TAB.

No offense intended, but Yasnippet is more powerful and also more
versatile than what we offer, since we stick to "<" prefix for
historical reasons.

Using Tempo is fine. But we're writing a template system on top of it,
which is a different beast.
