Hello all.  Here's a point I'm pondering and I hope to get your thought pennies.

When you compose a Fusebox site, it's likely you'll have a large number of essentially 
static pages.  They're nothing more than content to be displayed and read.  In that 
case, is it better to:

1) Stick to Fusebox. Create "dsp_" files and fuseactions for each page to display.
2) Do it the old fashioned way.  Create standard pages and link directly to them.  Use 
Fusebox for site functions that merit it.

Now, let's say we have a compelling reason to make all pages of static content 
dynamically generated. (We'll build a content management system to let Marketing make 
their own little copy edits rather than bothering you.)  In this case, is it better to:

1) Use a file-per-page method. Create "dsp_" plus whatever other appropriate files for 
each page of content.  
2) Use a page ID to generate a page.  No physical file exists.  The page ID pulls the 
appropriate text for the page from the database.

I have my own answers.  But I'll not spoil it by giving that away yet.
