I completely agree.  And that framework should simply be making libarch
easily accessible to scripting.  

Here would be my ideal interface:

address@hidden> python
Python 2.3.2 (#2, Oct  6 2003, 08:02:06)
[GCC 3.3.2 20030908 (Debian prerelease)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import libarch
>>> ar = libarch.connect('address@hidden')
>>> for category in ar.categories():
>>>     print category
tla
tla-pqm
>>>

And this could be easily accomplished by wrapping libarch.  I fail to
see what you couldn't accomplish with an even halfway decent libarch
wrapper.
