[Bf-committers] blendercasts reloaded...

I think would be easy to make a simple addon that logs every op thats 
done and writes their python commands in a textblock.
On an other PC the addon simply ready the text and reacts.
I'm not really experienced, but I could try doing an very simple version 
of this idea.. even I agree with Brecht.
