Yes, I can envisage being called up to rescue some nightmares created
by overly creative clients. One saving grace is the ability to limit the sections
that are editable i suppose.

Also agree but I have looked extensively at CMS in the price range (<=£1000)
and none of them offer nearly as elegant front ends.

In fact usability tests with the client themself on a few CMS demo sites proved that
they simply couldnt even use most of form based CMSs (stupid mistakes like
double clicking submits and using back button confusing them)

so Im thinking that although I wouldnt like to see <font> tags appearing everywhere
at least they could USE this program.
