Yes, I think many of us would agree that Zope is overkill!

Beats me.  Keep in mind that Quixote explicitly rejects the whole notion
that web pages are "designed" by web designers and "developed" by web
developers.  IMHO this separation is a large source of complexity in
Zope.

I have no idea how well ZPT and Quixote could work together.  The other
obvious alternative is to teach your web designer PTL.  The danger there
is that PTL is not much different from Python, and if you're web
designer learns Python, your web developer(s)' jobs(s) might be in
danger.  ;-)
