So, In my biased opinion - Plone would probably do quite well for you :-)
It has its fair share of quirks, but if you already know Zope and you
Already know Python - I'd at least play with it a little. If you have
to do any sort of web work on a regular basis, it can be time very
well spent.

Thanks for all your very helpful comments. I've played with it a bit
more, and now I am sold. I've got this ADD thing of wanting to see
"hello world" by the end of chapter one <span class="moz-smiley-s1"><span>
:-) </span></span> (as opposed to a starting with a "finished"
full-featured web site which I can then customize). Following Steve's
hint, (but perhaps not so much his advice), I found main_template and
made my own custom/main_template, thereby "butchering" my plone, but
quickly getting me where I wanted to be. Since I could <i>theoretically
</i>replace main_template with a "hello world" page, I somehow feel
much better <span class="moz-smiley-s1"><span> :-) </span></span>.<br>
