In my opinion, all encompassing Web frameworks should all die; Python should offer some basic functionality in the standard library, and all other functionalities should come as external interchangeable plug-ins. Not sure if this will ever happen, though ...
People are doing this; Ben Bangert described how he's putting Pylons together here: http://groovie.org/articles/2006/02/23/ingredients-to-the-pylons-python-web-framework
The pieces are all pretty pluggable and interchangeable. The all-encompassing framework is accomplished by collecting (or at times writing) a cohesive set of components, helping people assemble them (both at the Python level, and with code generation), and documenting the collection. Done right, all the glue will be pretty minimal (takes some work to get to that, of course). The minimalists get what they want, and people who want a complete story get what they want, using the same software.
