All together now... (gluon/clientutils.py)...

class PageManager(object):
    def __init__(self, response):
        self.response = response
        self.response.scripts=[]
        self.response.pagescripts=[]
        self.response.stylesheets=[]
    def addscript(self,script):
        if not script in self.response.scripts:
            self.response.scripts.append(script)
    def addpagescript(self,pagescript):
        if not pagescript in response.pagescripts:
            response.pagescripts.append(pagescript)
    def addstylesheet(self,stylesheet):
        if not stylesheet in response.stylesheets:
            response.stylesheets.append(stylesheet)
    """
    The three methods below should not be used because
    they require an instance variable in
    the view making it non-generic.  Here for testing.
    """
    def includescripts
        scripts = ''
        for script in self.response.scripts:
            scripts += script
        return scripts
    def includepagescripts
        pagescripts = ''
        for file in self.response.pagescripts:
            pagescripts += SCRIPT(_src=file).xml()
        return pagescripts
    def includestylesheets
        stylesheets = ''
        for file in self.response.stylesheets:
            stylesheets += LINK(_href=file,
                        _rel="stylesheet",
                        _type="text/css",
                        _charset="utf-8").xml()
        return stylesheets

Now if I could just mimic jQuery's sweet chaining in Python...
