Some designers would love to use this tool you speak of. The smoke weed and try a bunch of crazy things type of designer is pretty well served by Photoshop. You can hack things up easily, try visual ideas very quickly and then clean up your files when you find a direction that works. Systemic designers would loooooove the tool you describe. Global control of grids, headline styles, body copy styles, form elements, buttons, links, graphic elements and scaling behavior. This is how they already think. Photoshop makes them update most of these things manually. Want to make a change to every page you are working on? Time for some tedious production work. Want to see how an idea would actually function? Too bad. Note: Smoke weed designers are not to be underestimated. They come up with things that systemic designers never would. You might want a smoke weed designer working on your branding and a systemic designer on your web app.
