Wondering though, why with SS, Django, etc. must one define formfields at the code level?? If you create your database tables (id, field1, field2, etc.) the model definitions are already in place. On the CMS level one would simply import those already created DB table fields via GUI vs. typing it all out by hand.

I do this with my roll-my-own CMS — form presentation, reports and data storage are literally button clicks, drag and drop ordering of fields (and modules on the view level). The only time you have to code is coding to the exception vs. defining everything at code level.

Anyway, must be a reason the big CM platforms are setup as they are. Django is indeed awesome, if SS comes close, I’ll consider making the dive, just downloaded it and am sooooo pleased to see actual objects vs. Drupal local “hook” functions, what a zoo.
