Funnily enough we have added some (as yet undocumented) flowables to
help this kind of thing - in our case making sure certain things
happen in the right places on 4-page spreads.  These new flowables can
include content or not depending on the current page, frame or
position.  If curious, look at the bottom of
reportlab/platypus/flowables.py on trunk.

But PyPDF is definitely the easiest way if you just need to
conditionally add a blank page.
