Please make sure you stick to one functionality/change per branch to
make it easier for others to make a diff and understand all the
changes. I thought you wanted to use the branch for the
folder_contents work only ;-)

CMFDefault represents a simple sample application for the CMF. It
doesn't have to be pretty by itself, but any changes should have these
goals:
- make it easier for people to customize the look-and-feel using CSS
only, or...
- make it easier to take the current main_template as a guideline
for a new main_template by making it as simple and understandable as
possible.

I'd be opposed to any template that uses fixed widths and which does
not degrade gracefully with less or more width.
