Aha, good thinking, Batman! That didn't occur to me.

(Relevant anecdote: I was in a long development meeting just over a year
ago in which a group of us were failing to agree on a one-of-many
choice. Each vote we made was equally divided between the options, much
to the eye-rolling disdain of an extremely smart consultant who was
visiting us at the time. Unable to bear our stupidity, the
aforementioned expert finally left the meeting with an exasperated,
"each person should have two votes!" A minute later the decision was
made and our meeting was over.)

I've written CGIs that have been slow to write out a whole page, and the
pages tended to come back a line at a time. I think it should work just
fine, as long as sys.stdout is repeatedly flushed by the CGI.
