Tornado celery integration hacks

Question

Since nobody provided a solution to this post plus the fact that I desperately need a workaround, here is my situation and some abstract solutions/ideas for debate.

Answer 1

Now, https://github.com/mher/tornado-celery comes to rescue...

class GenAsyncHandler(web.RequestHandler):
    @asynchronous
    @gen.coroutine
    def get(self):
        response = yield gen.Task(tasks.sleep.apply_async, args=[3])
        self.write(str(response.result))
        self.finish()
