This is the tact I take with PyGeo.

The burden is on myself, as the API designer and documenter to make it
as accessible as I might want it to be.  And I think I can accomplish
that without building in crippling limitations as to  what depth a
"scripter" might want to explore - even to the extent of extending the
API itself.

I guess its a matter of the audience one hopes to reach.  There are a
number of other dynamic geometry applications out there.  Despite my
own interest in the subject, it was precisely the limitations their
API, whether GUI based or otherwise, that led me to the explorations
that is becoming PyGeo.  It was the limitaions in exploring *geometry*
to which I refer. Having no per se interest in programming, I would
not impose the assumption of such an interest on my users.

I guess I hope to reach others like myself.  With no particular
interest in programming, per se. Just with what you can get do with
it.
