 * Hey there,
 * I’m wondering if this functionality exists somewhere (maybe in the form of a 
   plugin or a widget).
    I’ll try to describe it as good as Belgian guy possibly
   can ;).
 * WordPress can be used as a CMS. But instead of creating full pages, I would like
   to define blocks of content.
    –> In a block you specify which inputs are required,
   for example ——> a string of max 100chars (which will be used for the title) ——
   > a photo of size 50px by 50px
 * Now as the system knows which input is required he can build up a custom form
   to complete that block.
    As frontend, there is some kind of template engine that
   translate the content just inserted into html.
 * Of course one page consists out of different blocks. (another example of a block
   would be a data table, where you just insert the raw data in the ‘input phase’,
   and that the parser translates it into html).
 * By doing so it’s incredibly easy to keep your site updated, as well content wise
   as layout/style wise.
 * So … Does this exist in some form? 🙂
    Thanks, Pj
