Why?
We can provide a generic QMP dispatch interface that high level languages can use. Then they can do fancy dispatch, treat QErrors as exceptions, etc.
Because more than likely it will be more efforts than doing the same work in the native language, forcing certains designs [1] up to high-level-language developers throats, and possibly less stability (segfault, memory corruption, memory leak, ..) specially in development phase. [1] lack of separation between IO and pure functions, file descriptor versus stream, C memory functions instead of GC based, and probably lots of other things easily accessible from high level language. -- Vincent
