Sounds like a great idea for translators who are also programmers, or at least knows HTML (and syntax for logic, judging by your examples). But I haven't worked in any companies where the translators/the people doing localization have been programmers, they have just been translators. This will be more or less impossible for them to use efficiently, if at all.

Well, you have to start somewhere. Anyone can learn how to call a function, just like they can learn MessageFormat. And basic HTML is something translators must already know.
