Now that Datasette has a documented request object #706 and that object is used by things like the flash messages system (#790) - https://datasette.readthedocs.io/en/latest/internals.html#add-message-request-message-message-type-datasette-info - I find myself wanting to add views which get a request, as opposed to an ASGI scope.

So I'm re-prioritising this, with the main need being a way for plugins to hook up their own view functions that can accept a request and return a response.

But... doing it using the new `asgi_wrapper` hook https://datasette.readthedocs.io/en/latest/plugins.html#asgi-wrapper-datasette isn't particularly obvious.

I'm going to leave this ticket open for the moment. I think I need at least one example plugin to show that this approach is good enough - and it's still quite possible that I'll add an extra, easier hook for this.
