to create a toolset to mke your work more easy an fast.

My thought is I would identify a bunch of C++ functions to wrap, wrap them, and then use Python to pull together new functionality.  The key to success is to make the C++ aspect of this wrapping as easy as possible.  I don't mean "less work" as much as I mean "obvious work that I'm liable to do right because it's simple".  If this means restrictions on what interfaces I can expose, I can live with that.
