Just like the author, I don't have time to learn the ins and outs of new "local optima" technologies all the time. I want a static site generator that "just works". So yes, give me a Wordpress-style GUI for creating a blog, then "compile" it to a static site, then deploy.
Seems like all the static site generators have lots of directory structure conventions and hoops to jump through for simple things like pagination and dates.
