The most productive environment I've worked in is Lisp (and Smalltalk, I 
guess). Config, code, HTML, everything was generated from Lisp. I had usable 
IDE assistance *everywhere*, including across layers.

I'm now playing games with annotations, even *more* games with code generation 
(both during build and runtime; codegen has always been one of my guilty 
pleasures), and ways of doing the development itself (literate programming with 
cross-language weaving) to reduce the amount of time I have to spend switching 
paradigms, but it's ultimately still in my face on *some* level, even when I 
don't have to think about it all the time.

The other big issue? The sheer number of options for essentially every single 
layer :(

Yanno, with the current exchange rate...
