I'm not fully convinced we need this yet (see email on the merge
proposal), so I'm going to vote for your ruled out third option of
keeping it simple and writing a really basic wrapper over routes like
you have started. :)

I think Pylons is too heavy, and I really don't like the idea of
copying in parts of modules since you loose one of the reasons you
are using it in the first place - keeping it up to date automatically
between upgrades.
