The python_http_handler plugin already offers some mod_python
functionalities, they just need to be improved in order to support
mod_python completely.
Doing in this way we will make possible to use many web applications
(like django) with myserver, creating a new API will not solve any
problem because it means all applications using mod_python must be
modified to support a new interface.  Surely we can add new features
if we think they are "better" than mod_python, we will not break the
support to mod_python and offer something more.  Maybe offer in python
the scheduler continuations mechanism?
