There's nothing keeping the Pylons/TurboGears/Paste cabal from
defining our own protocol and using it.  We have enough clout and
enough projects that it could become WSGI 2 by default.  Packages can
support it alongside WSGI 1 or use a v2to1 wrapper.

Maybe if we ask Ian reeeally nicely he'll make a spec and a Paste
extension that implements it, and we can make a pylons.wsgi2app to go
with it.  I think Ian's more qualified than any of us to know what the
spec should contain.  If we keep it close to the emerging standard
it'll be easily enough to merge the two when they finally get their
act together and decide what they want.

Though we should call it something other than WSGI 2.  How about WSGI
Rebellion? (whiskey rebellion), codename rebelwsgi.
