In response to your original question: I have been working quite a bit with modx and CI. It's basically all I work with now-a-days. I decide between the two by looking at the level of "freedom" i want vs. the level of "prebuilt stuff" i could benefit from (actually modx gives you A LOT of freedom still). It pretty much always comes down to who needs to manage it (is it a project for myself or is it a site for a client). If it's for a client I always go for modx as it has so many CMS features and writing your own snippets/plugins and working with the modx api is very easy and straigtforward. Also, modx really does allow you to easily control every single output of code.

I have been working quite a bit with Joomla and after switching to modx I would never dream of touching it again.
