I don't have a good idea right now what to do with this scripting capabillities, but I think this is a really powerful feature, especially for scripting-experts.
The other great adventure is, that this scripts could be interchanged with other users, so the whole community will have a benefit!!

about how to start this? ... I think you guys should offer basic editing/effect capabilities first (dissolve, color-stuff, title, freeze, slow/fast-motion, pip, slip-edit, slide-edit, ...), before starting this scripting stuff ... just MHO ;-)
