In the future, it would be great if some ideas from other teams could make it here, in order to both reduce probability for any bug and, take advantage of testing concepts:

Last one, a good read on DSLs! : http://safehammad.com/downloads/domain-specific-languages-and-python-2011-04-21.pdf

Interesting. Not high priority though - I would guess.

LUA might be able to cover some of the customization needs without exposing too much (see also here).

Another approach would be to make the whole thing a more nicely structured library that people could use in their apps to develop custom flows and automation. See also #106.
