There's the middleware framework (http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/middleware/), but those hooks are on a per-request basis, not a per-server basis. We could easily add a hook for you, though. The magic-removal branch has a new dispatching framework (we're using PyDispatcher), so if you're willing to wait for that, we can can add the hook there.
