[mod_python] Questions for the FAQ - please check and confirm (req.write() and return) also docs update ...

Same here. My handler builds dynamic pages using successive calls to
req.write() with no problems. In fact, the only issue here might rather be 
whether it is better (as in 'less expensive') to 'assemble' the document in 
memory and send it in one swoop to the client, as opposed to sending it 
in many calls to req.write().
In other words, whether it's preferable to assemble a dynamic document at
the server level, or at the client level. I would tend to believe 
the former is better, because it reduces network traffic. Though I could be
mistaking. But mod_python definitely allows both strategies.
