Nobody has to my knowledge, that would be pretty awesome too.

I've found that python isn't all that universal on non-Linux boxen. Some 
of the newer Solaris include sometimes ancient versions (2.3 I think in 
Solaris 10, or what it 9?). So something like this might need a lot of 
conditional imports and be limited in the types of calls it can make.
