Python APIs are usually 5 times better than the ones you dream about.
To design an API you have to start collecting possible (even ideal) users. Then you trim them down to the few most important people, and give a face and a name to each one of them. Then you create an API to make them happy. And then you write the code under the APIs. From some things you have currently designed in Phobos2 it seems you are doing it backwards.
