While I agree (or at least consider the point moot) that this is possibly the best way to use plain mod_python, I'd disagree that it's a good way to develop modern web applications in Python. By the time you've decided on every bit of framework to use, and made all the little decisions that go into turning a fresh, clean spot on your hard drive into an application, what you've done is reinvent TurboGears rather than develop your application. Worse, you've probably reinvented it poorly. I've done so many times and am well aware of what a time-waster it is. You say that you haven't tried Django or any other Python framework. Perhaps you should. You seem to have at least the start of the right idea about web application organization, so I think you'd be pleasantly surprised with what you'll find already done for you by the major Python frameworks and how much time you'll stop wasting on code that isn't part of your application.
