The second best choice may be cdrdao but note that cdrdao is not maintained anymore since 5 years. There have been a few bug fixes since then but no nore. libburnia has other problems: 1) It is non-portable and thus limits portability of brasewro 2) It depends on a Linux privileges problem and will force other platforms to run brasero as root if it may be ported. cdrecord is the best way to deal with this as it implements a clean separation between the privileged task of sending SCSI commands and a complex and thus hard to review GUI code. wodim is unmaintained, just represents an old (4+ years old) state of cdrtools and wodim cannot be legally distributed because of Copyright and GPL problems. wodim should have the lowest priority.
