We are fortunate that our HTML designer is very capable of CSS + HTML and that gives very clean markup. We are also fortunate that the designer doesn't shy away from CVS usage.
There's a big difference between a frontpage designer and a web designer knowing what he is producing. The difference is the same as between the 'VB code monkeys' and a pragmatic programmer. The former only knows how to press buttons and make pretty pictures, but hasn't got a clue as to what happens in the background. The latter is a true craftsman, preciously working on his skills to improve himself, his knowledge and the products he's producing.

This is a wrong principle. Modern-day web programming is not a CGI
script + HTML 2.0. Web browsers are capable of _javascript_, DOM, CSS,
XML parsing, XSLT and other stuff. Designers cannot do that. This is
programmers' job. Never before web dev was so fun (and gore) as it in
last two-three years. And it will get better. That is why I think that
JSF and such are very unflexible, they spit out predefined HTML,
sometimes not really pretty one, and they do not allow to use the full
power of modern client web development.
