Regions/page tamplating made easier?

By browsing the web, I found this screencast of a "new
CMS", named  
LightCMS. While it's not as flexible and has less features
the way of  
"building a page layout" is extremely easy to use,
and very nice to  
include in some way into Drupal.

So, perhaps some people should look at this: http://w

Reminds me of Blocks, Views and Panels.

Do not fall into the trap of assuming that in-CMS editing of
templates 
== "user-friendly interface".  

If you're doing anything even remotely interesting with a
template or code, an 
HTML textarea is a horribly unfriendly interface.  Even
Notepad is better in 
most cases.

No one. ;p  The look and feel is similar to a MS product
for
information sharing.  But, blocks, panels, views and jQuery
with AHAH
forms should be able to do it if your interested in creating
a module
for it.
