<DIV>Count me as extremely skeptical that Dreamweaver is anything but a web 1.0
tool (my rant on this: <A

), but I'm certainly happy to be proven wrong. Personally I don't feel that web
design requires a wysiwyg application, but what seems obvious is that many
people -- and universities -- are resistant or intimidated by CSS. I started by
hand coding in the early '90s before the various web design apps came out, so
maybe I'm coming from a different place, but learning CSS fundamentals is not
rocket science. I feel the real design happens in the imagination, and
photoshop, illustrator, indesign, inkscape, fireworks, etc. All that dreamweaver
does is combine the design with some auto-generated mark-up, yes? But if
dreamweaver can be leveraged into making decent markup, that could help a lot of
people, it seems.</DIV>

<DIV>Is there a proof of concept or proposed architecture for such a
