I agree, Michael.  I used FrontPage and I thought it was nice.  But WDSC
has it beat for ease of use and flexibility.  The web site designer is
almost completely intuitive (although I had to change the view to
"hanging" from its default view).  You can have as many templates as you
need and apply them as necessary.  It's nice to create a home template,
a node template and a leaf template, and then be able to apply them at
the various levels with just a couple of clicks.

Add to that the fact that the template language, if they ever get around
to documenting it, is really powerful.  Even though I had to do
everything through trial and error, it was quite nice.

What they're really going to need at some point is the ability to debug
the templates as the code is being generated.  But given the nature of
Eclipse, I can't believe that's impossible.
