On the other hand, having specialized software means tight control over form over resulting displayed page; every page will look the same, and hence mean the entire database is easier to browse.

Wiki-templates are not a solution :-)

I like the idea. Though, I think we could just use a free wiki for
this. Wiki would allow discussion, customizations etc for each
applications w/o finding external support resource in the first place.
It's more flexible by nature. We can have template etc to represent
our apps, have them listed, discussed, video explained. Related
informations are linked and can be easily maintained by third parties
when the original maintainer wasn't around for any reason. Mediawiki
has nice modules like forum etc, and can have multiple forums for
several purpose. A bit harder to initialize but much easier to have a
lot of things maintained. Just need someone as a director coz that'd
make it easier to maintain the wiki structure to always be in a good
shape.
