[mod_python] lookup_uri

I wrote a week ago about wanting to do subrequests but couldn't find
anything in modpython beyond internal_redirect.

Anyway it turns out that Apache really does have exactly what I need and
they are called subrequests.  The actual method I want to call is
lookup_method_uri (assuming it copies authentication information from
the parent request).

modpython seems not to have this family of methods.  The Perl equivalent
of modpython does:

  http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/api/Apache2/SubRequest.html

Any advice on how to get access to these methods?  I'm happy to do any
of the following:

  * Modify modpython source code
  * Abuse ctypes in some way
  * Write an additional library to be loaded accessible from python code

This topic seems to have come up before without apparent resolution:
