Yes.
And it is also used in YaPI, which was at some time considered as a future 
public API to YaST functionality. This did not really happen, but parts of 
YaPI is currently used by webYaST. (It does not have to be limiting, we may 
want to rewrite webYaST backend anyway).

One of the Perl issues was mentioned by Jiri Srain - it's a pain in 
cooperation with YCP e.g. when sharing boolean values.

As one of my past hackweek project, I tried to write pure python yast module. 
There were some problems (bnc #422072,bnc#422073) that are not fixed yet, but 
my overall impression was relatively good, AFAIR.
