Well, that has not happend. What has happend is that people use a 
mismash of urllib, urlib2, cgi, (standard pythhon), webob, ++ web 
framework specific libraries for even the simplest web 
programming tasks.

It is a mess! But seasoned Python developers either joined the 
ride (thus already know where to look) or have their own 
abstractions, and if not (almost) EVERYTHING has one or several 
standard lib based solutions on stackoverflow.

That is a completely different scenario.
