Yes, thanks - I found something similar in the "Serving Static Assets"
documentation [1]. However, if I understood correctly, this still
wouldn't help for the standard case of responding to request to "/"
with the static "index.html", like apache does for example for
index.htm(l)/php/cgi etc. Any ideas?

The whole static stuff seems very hacky for me, examples:
1) from the same page: [1] "The special name *subpath above is used by
the pyramid.view.static view callable to signify the path of the file
relative to the directory you’re serving."
2) The special purpose of the "name" attribute of the static view.
3) The double meaning of add_static_view depending on the first
parameter (i.e. in the external host case)

I wish this would be cleaned up some day, more consistent and more
intuitive to understand.
