I provide shared hosting for some clients. The simple answer is that the last time I looked I couldn't find good documentation for getting Python (and Ruby) support working side-by-side with a modern LAMP stack. Most Python (and Ruby) hosting-related documentation assumed nginx, which, while I like it otherwise, still lacked good support for .htaccess files, which are a must-have when providing hosting for people using things like Wordpress and Joomla and Drupal. The documentation that I could find for Apache environments was way, way behind the best practices for a PHP+Apache environment and some of the recommendations were orthogonal to my current environment. I still would like to provide a hosting environment that can handle a mix of PHP and Python and Ruby, but it's going to be fiddly and involve a lot of trial-and-error and I haven't been able to justify the time sink yet. Getting suexec + event-mpm + fcgid + PHP opcode caching has been enough of a headache as it is.
