And I can't be bothered with non-standard transformation languages...

Centipede uses Cocoon, which allows you to use Velocity, or whatever you
want to transform your documents.  You aren't locked into XSL if you
don't want.  THat's the beauty of it.  WIth Maven, you are locked into
DVSL, and there is no other way of doing things. :/

But again, Reality Check: how often do you mess with the look and feel
of a site?  If the theme exists--use it.  It's that simple.
