I'm not happy about people using anything other than the templates in the distro, since they still have some application logic in them. We have had bugs in the templates; I'm sure there are still some lurking. Using custom templates is very much done at your own risk.
- To separate look&feel from strings and some logic inside the
templates. Look&feel would be config (css + structure), and the strings could be managed in two ways: language templates, defining variables (the templating system is *very* powerful); and using gettext (standard way, but more hacky to implement here)
Locale::Maketext looks interesting: http://search.cpan.org/~sburke/Locale-Maketext/
