The other Chris S is right. It does, but it is a recent addition to hg and would add another layer of complication. Eventually it could be helpful as a potential way to distribute development tasks. For example, I feel comfortable working on the Welcome app but not on Web2py itself I could just clone the Welcome app repo. (Interestingly enough this is exactly how I feel at the moment ;)).
Subrepos also has some other really interesting possibilities as well regarding Web2py but when I checked it out I could not quite get it to do what I wanted and the potential for unexpected side affects seemed to be high... I am am sure this will be worked out in the future but I am in no rush to complicate things for us.
