Honestly speaking I think that it was a mistake to offer the macro
recorder as it is today. IMHO we would be better off without one.
Recording only "dispatch" calls is not what people expect and something
else is impossible to achieve with reasonable effort.

IMHO we should have offered a pure automation recorder that doesn't
generate source code but binary code only.

So I hesitate to support any further development in this area.

If you want you can "overwrite" the service
"com.sun.star.frame.DispatchRecorder" with your service (by implementing
this service with your Python recorder) so it will be used automatically
instead of the built-in one when you call "Tools-Macro-Record" from the
menu.

Best regards,
