   For custom fields in posts, to display in the template would you rather have something like:
   Option 1:
   
<?php if (post_custom('listening')) { ?>
Yo! I'm listening to <?php echo post_custom('listening'); ?> and it's tight!
<?php } ?>

   OR
   Option 2:
   
<?php post_custom('Yo! I\'m listening to % and it\'s tight!', 'listening'); ?>

   The second is less verbose, but you have to escape stuff, the first is more flexible, but more verbose. Thoughts?

   I vote for the first option. It makes more sense.
   Why don't you code a wrapper function to make the first behave like the second?
