Default PHPNuke & SEO (unique meta & title tags)

I'm looking for some helpful suggestions.

I'm trying to help someone to improve the SEO of their PHPNuke web site. (As a disclaimer, I have never managed a PHPNuke site or done any PHP scripting).


I'm not concerned about the variables in URLs, it's the META and TITLE tags that I'd like address.

I'll summarize the questions:
  1. Is it possible to specify unique <META>, <TITLE> and even <H> Tags on a page by page basis using PHPNuke?
  2. If it's not possible, is there a comparable CMS that would allow this level of SEO and that would allow an easy upgrade/migration from PHPNuke to the new system?

Background:
Apparently my client (his webmaster has only learned PHPNuke by playing with this site) says that he doesn't think it's possible to specifiy unique META and TITLE tags that can be generated uniquely & dynamically depending on the page content.

I did some research and found a module (DYNMETAKEYS-1.1.2) that can be added that is supposed to allow exactly that, although it specifies it will only "generate dynamic META-TAG KEYWORDS and descriptions for news generated by article.php". Obviously, this implies it will only be helpful for that particular sort of content.

I'll be very grateful to anyone who can give us some suggestions.
