Another point to consider here is that after "MidCOMizing", your
sites will no longer be custom-made, but instead using a shared
and commonly maintained platform.

This means that ideally it will be the last conversion hassle you have
to face as from then on you can live easily with future MidCOM versions,
or even convert to other CMS using Exorcist if required. MidCOM's
content model is the defacto standard, so there will definitely
be conversion tools for it, no matter how much Midgard's structure
will change.

Yep, and present the data in format editable with datamanager. To
make it more Aegir-like, we might add some DHTML to make Aegir-like
tabs out of the <fieldset>s of the editing form.
