+1 that the PSML would handle the pages and page decorations.
There would be a default page decorator  that can be overwritten (same as for 
portlets).

Since a Page is a Fragment and a Page is collection of fragments, I
would say yes.  

There is one thing we need to clear up.  If we have a page, within a
page, how do we handle the embedded page's decoration?

Do we:

1. ignore the embedded page's decoration and just show its fragment
markup.
2. Show the root pages decoration around it and then any of its
sub-pages also show there decoration.
3. Allow a sub-pages decoration to override and become the root pages
decoration.
4. Any of the previous 3 controlled by settings in the psml.

I am +1 on 4, that way you could get as fancy as you want.
