I thought that the OP was asking for something to perl what Asterisk-Java does 
for java coders.  I would definitely consider Asterisk-Java to be a framework, 
though not so much with PasAGI which is more of an class object wrapper around 
AGI functions that I wrote a while back because I'm lazy that way ;)

I'm not sure what your point is, but I'll say that I'm a definite proponent of 
abstraction layers provided they don't bar access to lower level logic when I 
need it.  I think you'll agree that good abstractions lend themselves to reuse 
and reduced development time (easy of use, less runtime logic errors, easier to 
extend, etc).
