I would recommend you take a good look at Sava. Geoff's statement that it is 
"not specifically designed to be customised and extended" is not really true. 
In my limited experience (so far) with it, it is apparent to me that it was 
built to be very extensible and customizable.
I had a chance to talk to Malcolm O'Keefe (the CEO of BlueRiver Interactive, 
which is to Sava what Daemon is to FarCry) about this subject. As an example, 
he pointed out the social networking site biteclub.com, which he described as a 
"huge Model-Glue application" integrated with Sava to handle the content 
editing/publishing and user management aspects of the site. The only drawback 
(which Malcolm readily admitted) is that, at this point, the documentation on 
how to use Sava's API to integrate it with other apps is sparse, but they are 
working on it, as well as a more formalized plugin architecture to build Sava 
extensions.
I've tried a couple of times to get started with Farcry, but it didn't really 
click with me. I'm finding the learning curve with Sava to be much shallower 
and the user forums have been really helpful. This is definitely not a knock on 
Farcry, which is THE content management framework in the OS CF space. But I 
found the learning curve to be steep. From what I hear though, you can get a 
lot out of it if you can keep with it.
I haven't looked at Razuna since it's not yet compatible with MySQL (although 
they plan to be).
