Well, my detailed plan for now is to look at Doug's implementation on the Java side and mimic it. Once I get it working, I'll remove the Java-isms and make it more Pythonic.
Creating classes and dynamically adding properties seems like how things will work; it's going to be a bit "magical". If you want to sketch out your implementation direction further, or even get a little code down, I'll be happy to spend a bit more time on my critique.
