Yes, a page builder is not comparable to a CCK, which deals with different "content types".
Anyways, I got your basic idea about an interactive template-builder or even a type/form-constructor.

A.) The current page-builders and template frameworks (T3, JSN, HELIX, PLAZART) are a good source and it might be possible to utilize one of them... so, it is not necessary to build everything from scratch. Only Cobalt fields have to be added. If Cobalt9+ is going to get in this direction, it should probably store the "positions" and "fields" in a JSON file. Then this file could be parsed instead of the usual "field loop"... etc.

B.) I would also like a much simpler/lighter approach like in FlexiContent or ZOO.

C.) Also like the idea of a general All-Purpose-Template like Seblod "Seb-One" with default positions.
