Or go even further, and have a config file that lets the user design 
individual pages like a desktop publishing program (only they have to type 
XML themselves ;-)

e.g. my mockup config file had entries like this:

<page title="Scotland" orientation="portrait">
  <map position="fullpage" type="region_map">
    <area>56.25, -4.25, 56.75,4.0</area>
    <filter>motorway, primary, city, railway, river</filter>
  </map>
</page>

<page title="Index">
  <block position="0cm,0cm,10cm,40cm" border="1">
    <index_listing 
      filter="amenity=pub" 
      area="50.0, -0.1, 50.3, 0.1" 
      display="name" 
      heading="Pubs in London" />
  </block>
</page>
