Graham, I like your approach to this it will keep things very decoupled and would still allow a developer to generate stats on what is going on inside mod_wsgi. It would be cool to start seeing its use in something like Djangos admin. The assumption here is that you would provide a Python API into the guts of mod_wsgi?
