Proposal:

Function-based:

     def startup():
         return open_resource(something)

     def shutdown(resource):
         resource.close()

     def application(environ, start_response):
         # ...
         return response_body

     application.startup = startup
     application.shutdown = shutdown

Class-based:

     class App(object):
         def startup(self):
             return open_resource(something)

         def shutdown(self, resource):
             resource.close()

         def __call__(self, environ, start_response):
             # ...
             return response_body

     application = App()

The return value of startup() can be any python object and is opaque to 
the server. It is passed as-is to shutdown()

startup() could take more parameters. Maybe the application (though can 
we already have it as self for class-based or in a closure for 
function-based)
