In my experience those different people couldn’t do different jobs. Designers could write css, but I hd to set up magic id/class incantations for them. They could write html, but changes kept breaking business logic.

Css zen gardens was a fantastic idea that I’ve never seen realized in a real project with business needs. Maybe I’ve just been unlucky.

I've seen few organisations where there was a group of frontenders specialised in html/css. Even integrated in continious development. It's a fine line, but with backbone.js and sass they could manage, but with react and postcss the line between templates and logic disappeared.

But it's less specific then that. When 6 years ago hiring a frontender they needed to just know html and css, now they need to be full blown devs.
