Well... it might not be exactly what you have in mind but we've built a 
CSS wizard that works hand in hand with our CMS.  You don't have to be a 
CSS expert - or web designer, really - to use it.  You just choose the 
layout, and work on certain div's that are pre-defined.  You can't 
change the HTML but you can add to it through hooks if need be.  There 
is also a place to hand code if you prefer that.

It's not perfect, it's a work in progress but it's very flexible.  I do 
all our custom designs with it.   There are still usability issues to 
work out of course.  We designed it for ourselves first but it's been 
great for other people who want to design sites around our system who 
aren't CSS experts.
