I know this post is a bit old, but there is a simple way to do this within web.py
Simply override the default handler using "app.add_processor(new_func)" inside new_func() you can do stuff before or after your class handlers. Inside my code I have new_func start a thread, do perform some background work. For instance in blogstrap, I wanted to updated the statistics every few hours.
