No, I don't propose that the designer do that. The best way, I think, is
for programmer to set up a skeleton template which already has sections
where necessary and then give it to the designer who simply expands the
HTML.

And the engine doesn't convert template language into PHP. It executes
it directly.

I'm not imposing my will on you or anything like that. If you like it,
then use it, if you don't - well, more power to you, find something that
fits your needs better.
