We've been running Plesk on our servers for more than a decade now but I'm afraid I don't have a ready-made & tested solution for Plesk and web2py. We're phasing Plesk out and a large part of our hosting infrastructure has been moved to a custom solution that's better suited for web2py too, among other things.
I should have probably worked out some details before giving a definitive answer, but 1) seems like a cleaner approach, if you intend to offer Plesk to your customers or actively use it yourself. Your customers will be wanting to use it to create databases, monitor disk usage and visitor statistics, etc. Even if you do move web2py hosts out of that environment (option 2) ), you'll still be wanting to integrate this new parallel hosting system into Plesk, at least partially. It can be done, I'm just not sure how much hacking would it require.
