i give my +1 to the mathutils option, though it'd be nicer to wrap
moto, it would be duplicated work and mathutis is already mature and
well tested..
also, in most of my use cases (and most of the ones i have seen),
replacing a list for a mathutils vector/matrix doesn't break anything,
since most tend to just index them like this:
[code]
op = own.position
tp = target.position
e = [tp[0] - op[0], tp[1] - op[1], tp[2] - op[2]]
own.applyImpulse(op, [e[0]*5, e[1]*5, e[2]*5])
[/code]
Still, if there is code that relies heavily on those values being
lists, wouldnt it be possible to override the mathutils wrapping with
a runtime option? (i guess not but it's worth asking ;))...
