It won't help if the purpose of running code at server exit is to stop
background threads: Python calls atexit handlers after all non-daemon
threads have terminated.
And if your threads are daemon threads, you don't need to (and probably
can't) shut them down cleanly.
I think the safest way is to wrap the server code (e.g. Paster, if you chose
to use it). Something like
def main():
app = create_my_wsgi_app(...)
custom_app_startup(app, ...)
try:
serve_my_app(app)
finally:
custom_app_shutdown(app, ...)
