My guess would be that most of the aggregation/pipeling can be done at 
build time creating static PHP files/templates. Then that is used for a 
'runtime' or what the end user would use/see.

We do that for some sites we manage and it works pretty well. We create 
the XSL (I suppose it can get complicated) and determine the particular 
XML Schema for the content pieces. The XML structure is usually what we 
deem appropriate based on the clients needs. The CMS user uses a 
wysiwyg, schema validating XML editor to enter content. If the XML needs 
change, well, it is in XML and can usually be changed accordingly with XSL.
