templates vs includes

back in the days when i used asp, i used to have one page that acted as a template and just used include files for the main content. i would end up with urls like [site].com/main?page=something. now that im steeped in salesforce develoment, i still havent found a way to really buils sites efficiently. theres a controller component for navigation; whos logged in, what pages would they have access to. the main section would have a controller; getting data, checking permissions, etc. shared user and data assets, shared stylesheet assets. and components and include seems to be a little lacking in really being flexible and useful. or am i missing something? whats a good model for building out custom sites using the provided framework, allowing for building out navigation with user info, and building out multiple pages that use that navigation and stylesheets.

thanks
