Well, if we do that, you know what's going to happen - it'll get left behind and the result will be more cruft. There's too much of that already.
If others agree that this seems messy and is not an acceptable long-term solution, someone who's fiddled with the wysiwygs (and probably the person who originally stuck it all into acs-templating, if they're still around) should do some thinking about this now, while it's fresh and in front of us. Even if the work can't be done now, we should at least have an idea of how to move forward.
