     I personally would warn against Guille ... ask people around 
     GNUCash about their experience. There is a tone of code in

     ten feets pole. Have mercy on your users and suggest some easy to 
     use language like APL, or something? ;-)
     
On the other side of the coin there is Gimp which has some rather
amazing extensions all coded in Scheme, by people who seem to be
graphic designers rather than programmers.

But you raise a good point.  Any extension language needs to be
implemented properly or not at all.
