Hello, Another "user"/lurker POV:

I disagree. The sitemap is a way of *configuring* this complex processing, it is not the processing itself. The sitemap has become an XML programming language and I hate it for that reason.
To me, the sitemap setup/programming is clean and easy, I really like it, irrespective of whether it is "configuring" or "programming".
One other place where I think Forrest is using Cocoon is i18n. This is one of Forrest's weaker points - it is hard to set up, and there's really no comprehensive documentation (despite several efforts by a number of people). Cocoon provides a set of tools to set up i18n, and I find i18n in Cocoon to be easier to use than in Forrest, despite it being based on Cocoon.
Implementing proper i18n needs to be a requirement of the new Forrest - whether this is an argument for the present Cocoon-based solution or in favour of a new engine is beyond me:-)
