There's already software written to take care of much of the HTTP stuff protocol stuff, the headers etc. I wouldn't rewrite it. I prefer to monkey patch parts of existing code rather then rewrite all of it.
But your comment is interesting because, as I understand it, a non-blocking web server is simply a matter of setting timeouts on sockets, catch the exceptions and move on. I don't know why wouldn't that be possible with python stdlib ?
