I've played with this a bit...a couple of quick impressions:

- That's quite a chunk of Python code to be adding.  I've not yet had
  the chance to read it through properly, will hopefully be able to do
  so soon.  A bit more commenting would not have gone amiss here...

- I kind of think that this should go under dev-tools rather than being
  a new top-level directory.  Is there a reason not to put it there?

Thanks,

jon
