Render PHP files in TextEdit Apps
I accidentally dropped a .php file onto Text Edit today (I missed the BBEdit icon in the dock by about 4 pixels!). Surprise surprise, Text Edit did quite a good job of rendering the page as a web page! I was just expecting to see the code.

[robg adds: I couldn't get TextEdit to do anything with a couple PHP files I tested it with, but I've also tweaked its preferences to disable all rendering, and perhaps I didn't re-enable everything properly.]
