I don't understand why (seemingly) every CMS wants to get involved in the request serving process.

I'd really like to see CMSes which only do content management, then expose that content via very simple JSON APIs. Then I build the website myself separately as a super lightweight HTML rendering service which pulls from the CMS API.

Every CMS I've ever used didn't scale because its templating/rendering/request stack was so heavy.
