So use WordPress or Drupal. When you run up against their limitations,
you can always create a CMS with Cake. Lots of people have done it
(and some have even released their code).

That's a very good point. However, you do admit that you do have to write 
your own view class. I am just inherently lazy and like to avoid as much

Ill equipped? You mean to say we do not include something in the core by
default? There is nothing stopping you from creating your own view class
that will allow you to us any bloated template engine you want.

Design templates

I have been playing with Cakephp for about a month now (I just gave away 
that I am an extreme newbie!) and before that, RoR. Am I just imagining this 
or is it true that these web application development frameworks -  RoR, 
Codeigniter, Cakephp, Symfony, etc. all have a common shortcoming with 
regards to their presentation layer? Maybe this is just wishful thinking, 
but it sure would be nice to have some type of template engine that at least 
tries to emulate a CMS such as Drupal or Joomla or Wordpress. Is it just the 
nature of the beast with the way these MVC frameworks are constructed that 
make them ill-equipped to integrate something like this?
