As I mentioned in IRC, this gets a big +1 from me (as someone who does
use bpy pretty frequently in daily production work, and maintains a
few scripts here).

I don't really have an opinion on Python 3.0 or not, but I definitely
think it's time to get rid of the old, patchy, dysfunctional old API
and get behind a new auto-generated RNA/operator API. It'll solve a
lot of problems that occur in day to day scripting, and open up
several new avenues that we've all been waiting for 2.5 for.

cheers
