Just wanted to add half a cent here. Id honestly hate to see GS on a template engine. I personally find them tedious as you often end up having to that engines template variables which in a lot of cases is just as complicated as learning to code which defeats the purpose of being simple.
GS in its current state is excellent because if you want the main content in a certain place you just add a "Simple" php call that is not 2 paragraphs of code. You dont have to add a bunch of if's and's or but's to a template like you do with the various template engines and Wordpress. I use GS for everything just because of that simple feature. Being able to deploy a web site design in GS quickly was the critical point of my choosing it for nearly every web site I do. If every CMS took a note from how GS handles its self I would be alot more flexible in my CMS choices. The most complicated I will even use is Web Site Baker. If it wasnt for GS, sNews and Baker id just stick to static html for everything.
