Yes, it's quite easy in Python.

Yes. For performances need, some calls will need pickle objects (and so
python) like configuration send or checks exchange between
scheduler<-poller. but classic calls (like "hey, are you alive?") will be
possible with a simple curl call :)

It's not the same thing. LiveStatus is for pure status presentation, with
special queries. Here we are talking about internal exchanges between
daemons (or publish a module interface also for example, like WS_arbiter
that will be able to be "internal" module now).
But I think we should also give LiveStatus an HTTP socket too (with just a
host?(name=blabla)&(setatus=1) interface), but can be for another version
unless someone is interested by this.

Yes, that's one of the key thing of this. Especially with proxy setups :)
