Sounds good! Can you tell us a bit more about how the stylesheet-based
default layouts will work?
Seeking a way to have styles located in external CSS files instead of
hardcoded into the page, I had a look at ExternalCSS in the Cookbook. It
doesn't actually give the browser links to external stylesheets - it
reads them in and includes the styles in each page generated.
I have started working on a variant that uses <link rel="stylesheet"...
tags [1], but have not yet finished. Should I continue, or wait for
version 0.6?

Taking a break is a good thing. Besides, we'd hate you to get so
burnt-out that you couldn't continue work on such a useful tool. :-)

[1] Example output (each link tag only generated if file exists):
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="pub/wiki-defaults.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="pub/local.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="pub/Group.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="pub/Group.Page.css">
BodyWidth was to remain hardcoded so that custom widths set by existing
users would still be honoured.
