I agree with your assessment. It is extremely difficult to figure out which
WSGI server fulfills Zope's criteria. In fact, I would suspect that only
ZServer (Zope 2 and 3 version) does, because noone else has such strong
requirements.
What requirements? If we have such requirements, I suggest we reevaluate them.
*We do not want to be in the server business!*
We have performance and reliability expectations which come from running
mission-critical applications. Lots of the rest of the folks interested
in servers don't have those requirements (yet, anyway), and hence aren't
motivated to address them in their externally-maintained server
implmentations.
I find it impossible to believe that others don't have such
mission-critical requirements.
What is *worse* than maintaining our own server is trying to track
development on somebody else's, where their goals don't match ours.
Sure.

guessing that the amount of effort required to "maintain" the Zope2
server per month is less than the aggregate time spent by the community
reading this thread. ;)
Probably, if someone was actually maintaining it and *if* Zope3 was
using it.
If we find that WSGI is inferior to the Zope 2 server, then I certainly
think that abandoning our various Zope 3 efforts is a reasonable
alternative, although unattractive, since I'm not aware of anyone
actively maintaining the Zope 2 server. I'd much rather
leverage a larger effort.
Right now, we have no good basis for judging the server alternatives.
