I bet you simply didn't have time to try AR for anything beside

Complex out-of-box features usually come with this-way-only side
effect. There is nothing in Pylons to stop you from implementing
similar or even better "whistles'n'bells".
I love Pylons for not standing on my way with hard-coded behavior and
deep dependencies. If you prefer more rich out-of-box features for
price of less flexibility you might like some other framework. Better
yet feel free to get involved in Pylons development and help
implementing what you're missing.
Cheers
