I just want the DOM stuff to get finished so that I can rewrite everything I've written to be "internal".
Not to say that this isn't needed, but to make e.g. blends truly internal, much more is needed (new object type, new tool etc). DOM, as I understand it, will have the same capabilities as external scripts, except that it will be faster.
Well, it is my intention to extend the abilities of extensions when the DOM becomes available. So something like the star tool could be rewritten in Python is someone so desired (don't know why, but in theory). The reason I haven't done that to date is that it would be impractical without the speed of DOM.
So, yes, today if we instantly had DOM that would be impossible. But, it is my intention to make that only part of the changes that happen.
