Nice, but... (Score:1)

Nice twist on the old templating system scheme. Not sure CPAN needed YATS, but hey, it's a commons, post bills where you may.
A few issues you might consider:
1. Getting rid of those globals, otherwise a modules using petal are likely to screw up other modules using it. Take a good look at how TT2 and HTML::Template's APIs work. Yes, local $Petal::foo can work; no, not enough people know (or are likely to remember to use) local().
2. Be a polite user of the CPAN commons. try to find a top level namespace

  How (well?) does this interoperate with XML namespaces?
  
  This is near the top of Jean-Michels TODO list and it will get fixed.
  
  I also want to see support for Xincludes [webarch.co.uk].
