I generally like it.

About the *.file_wrapper removal, i suggest
a PSGI-like approach where 'body' can contains a File Object.

def file_app(environ):
    fd = open('/tmp/pippo.txt', 'r')
    status = b'200 OK'
    headers = [(b'Content-type', b'text/plain')]
    body = fd
    return body, status, headers


or

def file_app(environ):
    fd = open('/tmp/pippo.txt', 'r')
    status = b'200 OK'
    headers = [(b'Content-type', b'text/plain')]
    body = [b'Header', fd, b'Footer']
    return body, status, headers


(and what about returning multiple File objects ?)

By the way, congratulations for the big step forward
