[Web-SIG] WSGI Utils & SCGI/Quixote.

-> 
-> I handled this control issue using the following code:
-> 
-> # Magic dictionary for WSGIServer.
-> 
-> class MagicDict:
->     def __init__(self, handler):
->         self.handler = handler
->     def has_key(self, name):
->         return 1
->     def __getitem__(self, name):
->         return self.handler
-> 
-> When such an object is passed to WSGIServer, the specified handler always gets 
-> control, although it'd surely be preferable for so-called "WSGI middleware" 
-> to manage the URL space.

this still has the problem that env["SCRIPT_NAME"] and env["PATH_INFO"]
aren't munged appropriately, no?  I know this would be a problem with
Quixote, not sure about the rest.
