I have more or less the same topic going on at GameDev and it was
suggested there to use 1024x1024 tiles, which is something I'm
strongly considering.  I'm also considering doing an approach similar
to braids (irregular pieces with feathered edges as necessary) as that
was also suggested.

I'm also not particularly interested in cocos2d.  I was way back, but
it never really worked out for me.  I was also having considerably
more trouble to get it to just run right from the get-go on Windows, a
problem I don't have with Pyglet itself.  It also doesn't look like
there's been a major version since Sep. 2008.  Finally, I skimmed
through the Pyglet programming guide last night and more or less got
the concepts in it.  I've already been planning out how to handle my
backgrounds, game entities, etc.  Just need to get proficient with the
api now, hopefully.
