Yes, your point is well taken. I hesitated bringing this up in the first
place but the original request was for graphically talented designers and
that got me thinking about the ZMI as an intrinsic demo of Zope's
presentation capabilities.
I remember when as an application designer looking for a web framework
that, other than Zope.org's own portal pages, the ZMI was the first thing
to catch my eye. As an app designer, when looking for tools out there, I
can't help but get an impression of the potential of what the tool set can
produce from how the tool set looks to me. When I'm new to Zope, trying to
navigate my way through the tool set's screens I am, psychologically,
getting an impression of the what I could produce for my own audience.

Yes, good point. Let me add that when I started learning Zope the ZMI was
the only sample that I knew how to become acquainted with. But that was
probably because there were no other examples at hand when I installed it
"out of the box". And I'm not ashamed to say that one way I've learned to
do presentation with Zope is to study how the ZMI's presentation is
implemented.
