You're completely right. I'm an OO php developer (among other things) and when I go back and work on something like WP or Drupal it's just so foreign, despite being the same language. I can see how and why people like those systems, but as a developer they're just so difficult. When I do client cms work I use SilverStripe and it's great because they've built on top of a rails-esque php5 MVC framework so it just feels like programming any other php5 mvc app but with CMS stuff.
A couple of asides as well, sapphire, SilverStripes framework has now been spun off as it's own, independent php5 framework https://github.com/silverstripe/sapphire https://github.com/silverstripe/sapphire. Secondly, his mention of CodeIgniter got me curious again, great to see they've finally dropped php4 support. I'm going to have to check it out again I think.
