Based on a quick look, it seems like Cyclone provides a slightly nicer 
way to specify how to handle the various requests than does a plain 
Twisted web application.  Are there any other advantages to using 
Cyclone as opposed to plain Twisted?

To me, there is a trade-off:

Cyclone+Twisted:  slightly nicer way to write the web application.  More 
dependencies for Onionoo.

Plain Twisted:  not quite as nice a way to write the application.  Fewer 
dependencies for Onionoo.

Also, the documentation for Cyclone seems...minimal.  It might be 
straightforward for someone used to using Tornado, but that doesn't 
describe us over here...
