Yes, I've done this before.  The complexity is mostly in getting Apache
to actually send the password -- without significant configuration,
Apache hides all passwords.  Zope has the same issue, and documentation
for that should translate.  Also, using the built-in HTTP server you'll
have no problems (you'll get an HTTP_AUTHENTICATION environmental
variable, I believe, and use base64 to decode the value).

Annoyingly, most of the support needs to be done outside of Webware.
