In order to use the sass\_filter extension with 0.6.9 master I had to add  
this file:  
…/vendor/plugins/haml/lib/haml/util.rb

([http://dev.radiantcms.org/browser/trunk/extensions/vendor/plugins/haml/lib/haml/util.rb?rev=705](http://dev.radiantcms.org/browser/trunk/extensions/vendor/plugins/haml/lib/haml/util.rb?rev=705))

I got the extension from here:  
[http://github.com/radiant/radiant-sass-filter-extension/tree/master](http://github.com/radiant/radiant-sass-filter-extension/tree/master)

I’m not sure the best practice way to add this directly or I’d’ve done  
it myself from a fork.

fyi

Haml has been included in Radiant since 0.6.7. We need to remove it  
from the sass\_filter extension.

I realize there’s potential confusion for the new user but sass\_filter  
should come stock like textile or markdown. It may generate interest in  
sass.

I like SASS. I like promoting SASS. But giving SASS as an option to  
every page might be confusing to a basic, non-technical user.

SASS is really geared at the designer. Does the SASS filter take this  
user role into account?

FWIW, I’m sort of inclined to want Textile and Markup not be “standard”  
but rather a regular extension. After all, some may prefer to leave  
them out and instead use WMD, or even a WYSIWYG editor. And there have  
been some discussions of wanting to use different Markdown or Textile  
parsers too.

Just my $0.02.
