I have a request for the middleware stack. There should be one obvious
way to get back to the original application, through the stack

Right now, I have to write crazy things like this depending on the stack:

  original_app = self.app.app.application.app

Because some middleware use "app", some "application" etc..

I propose to write in the PEP that a middleware should provide an
"app" attribute to get the wrapped application or middleware.
It seems to be the most common name used out there.

Thanks
Tarek
