As a matter of fact, Jessie's predecessor Nessie (C++ and ViewKit) used an
embedded python for its scripting. For instance, when you hit a breakpoint,
you have it run a python script. I saw this as a great thing because you
could put *real* analytics in your conditional breakpoints. It was our
target to make nearly everything, including GUI setup, done in python.
