I like that idea.  It amounts to a sample program, extended a bit to be fully useable as a tool in its own right.  The existing sample MOP console client is a limited example of what you're talking about.

I suppose another way to achieve roughly the same benefits would be an NCP (that hooks up to a to-be-created PyDECnet session layer API).
