If I were to offer a suggestion to a PEP author or dictator wanting to get something out ASAP, it would probably be to create a compromise between the "flat" model (my personal favorite) and the modwsgi model, as an addendum to PEP 333.  Specifically:

* leave startresponse/write in play (ala modwsgi)

The alternative is returning a three-tuple status, headers, content-iterable, right?

I would definitely prefer just returning a three-tuple instead of the crappy start_response callback that returns a write callable. It makes applications easier to write, and the unified model should also make server implemation easier. It also combines nicely with yield from in some cases.

Cheers,
