I have to agree with Michael. I see horrible horrible unsemantic inaccesssible code a lot. We are encouraging people to do more with CSS and part of that is hiding valid things from certain views. For example hiding the description of an object from the user may be good for the design but bad for google. If you hide what you dont want with a css style sheet then google can still see what they want. We are working on a better systems but in the meantime we think that people will get most benefit from fast css only skinning. If you want to edit templates you can, but I can honestly say that we don't. We do a lot of work so you don't have to, if we are saying CSS only skinning is easier its not because we are mad or stupid, its because we really believe it. You can skin a whole plone site now in 2 hours. Everything. Now thats power!
