Why not ZPT:

If designers only know HTML they don't know ZPT, too. But ZPT is a bit easier to learn for *designers* than Python, "AFAIK". :D Well, I don't think, that "designer" (who makes beauty and graphics) equals "programmer" who probably know just a little who Johan Sebastian Bach was...
I think it makes much more sence to learn python than ZPT. Python is programming language, there are a lot of examples on the net (Cookboo) and a friendly newsgroup. IOW, let us to enforce artists learn the Python and let they make more crapware and headicks for us...
What remaines if you take away Acquisition, ZPT, DTML, ZClasses? An objectoriented applicationserver, a HTTP/WebDAV/FTP frontend to ZODB Buuueee... Why Zope? Because it *wide* framework. So if you hate simplicity and RAD and collaboration between different sectors of developers, then you should use CherryPy or something.
Acquisition: [skip] I tried to inherit from Acquisition.Explicit but this resulted in strange behaviour of some zope methods. Yes, Acquisition is quite tricky and Zope 3 will be totally different. To use Explicit you should exactly specify the method / attributes you want to aquire, but you probably know well this already. ;-)
