That would be good. I went through this exercise a while ago and ended up
using CMS Made Simple (a PHP app) because it was easy for end users to
understand and there were a lot of plugins you could auto-install. Plus I
only had 2 weeks to develop a system. I found Bricolage too complex and
powerful to use for a simple CMS system.

CMSMS wouldn't be a bad place to start from, doing a straight rewrite. I
think a lot of the difficulty is in the design issues for stylesheets,
templates, cross-browser Javascript and how they fit together with code
plugins.

For while I've been thinking it would be nice to have a Cat-based CMS with
multiple features built on top of a platform. The platform can include basic
things like Authn, Authz, Sessions, a basic user schema and pre-built HTML.
The pre-built HTML can include controllers/templates/etc for registration,
login/logout, openid, etc. Then on top of the platform you can have
plug-and-play features like forums, blogs, photo galleries, surveys etc. If
it was built the right way, you could have your choice of forums, etc. You
can also only load the features that you want. I'm not sure how easy this
would be to do but I think it would be neat.
