It would be trivial to implement it like flask does. You can do it right now using the bottlepy way: https://pypi.org/project/bottle-websocket/ or https://github.com/marlboromoo/bottle-socketio-example py4web uses bottle under the hood.
The problem is that I would like something better than that. I am not convinced it would work well in a cloud setting o when you have servers behind a load balancer. Imagine you have two chat clients connected to two servers. If your client posts a chat message, how does one server notify the other server to notify the other client? This is the hard problem to solve. I am not interests in toy examples. py4web will have this.
