People are doing this; Ben Bangert described how he's putting Pylons 
together here: 
http://groovie.org/articles/2006/02/23/ingredients-to-the-pylons-python-web-framework

The pieces are all pretty pluggable and interchangeable.  The 
all-encompassing framework is accomplished by collecting (or at times 
writing) a cohesive set of components, helping people assemble them 
(both at the Python level, and with code generation), and documenting 
the collection.  Done right, all the glue will be pretty minimal (takes 
some work to get to that, of course).  The minimalists get what they 
want, and people who want a complete story get what they want, using the 
same software.
