I asked the same questions and Benjamin has shown us the current status in Austin - it's pretty impressive. But as you said, still more work needs to be done. I am going to write to ipython-dev to point attention to this thread, as this application wants to have something useful now. ipython1 is ambitious and it may take a year or something, until something usable comes out - but yet, I like the modular architecture of ipython1.
