I do care much about licenses so people can check that all programs
used in AroundWord are compatible with GNU GPL and similar licenses.
If the group were hostile to non-GPL licenses, then we would not use
Pylons ;)
We are building an end-user application from a web framework that give
us the freedom to choose the license of our application. Then, what is
the problem? We are not building a library for Pylons with GPL
license.

It's clear that not. It will be the result of my work, of our work,
and be small or big we have the *freedom* to license it since better
look alike.
Or perhaps, do you claim that all applications created with Pylons
have to be MIT or New BSD? If it is like that, say it clearly.
