There was an interview with Ilya Sutskever about deep learning (http://yyue.blogspot.ru/2015/01/a-brief-overview-of-deep-learning.html), where he states that DL's success can be attributed to 3 main breakthroughs:

1. Computing resources.
2. Large datasets.
3. Tricks of the trade, discovered in recent years.

The first bullet is the most important, IMO. Deep Learning is usually done on GPU (or, in Jeff Dean's style — on a cluster), and even in that case it takes hours to run. I haven't seen any mentions of GPU support in sklearn, so I assume there's none.
I doubt that DL's models would be useful without such computing power.

As to (current) Deep Learning models, according to my understanding, even though RBMs and AutoEncoders might have fell out of interest, convolutional and recurrent networks are still around, and are used extensively.

    as far as I know, sklearn has only an RBM module, but does not
    support multilayer perceptrons (MLPs), autoencoder, or recurrent
    neural networks. Are there any plans do extend sklearn by some
    neural network related modules?
    There was a GSoC project on neural networks last year
    (http://goo.gl/buHkyv), but I think it was not merged in. Instead
    of creating own modules, one might also provide an interface to
    theano, or other nnet libraries.
