I've recently spent a little time working on a Python-based GPG module for Vim, and I have to say the Python <-> Vim interface is... clunky. You do get a very basic object for navigating the current structure of open tabs, panes and buffers, but when it comes to interacting with Vim, the Python code is literally reduced to pushing keystrokes at it. Whatever the user would type at the keyboard, you have to put into a string and send - with no assistance for proper quoting or anything.
Given that "add integration with Python instead of inventing more Vim script" has been near the top of the feature-vote results for quite a while, I hope the situation will get better soon:
