That's exactly the point, even if Fluid is going to be used internally it does not prevent to bring an easy point and click mapping system to the developer that would generate the Fluid template and make their work easier.

I proposed Firebug because i was my favorite choice but it could be anything else, the point is "do we need a mapping system"? People i work with and I can perfectly leave without it but we are experienced developers and it is certainly different for others.
