This exactly what I too have realized!

I'm developing a WSGI framework with all these (and other) ideas:
http://hg.mperillo.ath.cx/wsgix

Its still not documented, so I have not yet made an official announcement.

The main design goal is to keep the level of the interface as low level 
as possible.

I don't like additional interfaces (like Request and Response) objects 
around the WSGI dictionary, and I don't like frameworks like Django that 
completely hides the WSGI interface.
