scaffold for single file app?  you could even make it a plugin if it's not cool 
to add to pyramid itself (even though I think it would be generally useful).

… install boilerplate
$ pcreate -t singefile  my1stapp
$ pip install -e ./my1stapp
$ python my1stapp/my1stapp.py
…
**** THE GLORY OF PIXELS ****
### EXPLAIN WTF JUST HAPPENED ###

I just know I have often used scaffolds as a source to canabalize.  There is a 
value to constructing the single file app line by line, but knowing there is a 
command to spit out the dumbest servable starting point ever: priceless.
