No, actually, I am doing exactly that now.

The "go" button on my lathe GUI is an MDI button that looks like this:
<object class="EMC_Action_MDI" id="turn.go">
    <property name="command">O&lt;turning&gt; call [${turn.x-f}]
[${turn.sf-f}] [${turn.cut-f}] [${turn.feed-f}] [${turn.z-f}]
[${turn.rad-f}] [${turn.angle-f}] [${turn.tool-s}] </property>

There is a ${control_name} substitution scheme in GladeVCP.
I don't know any way to do the same thing in PyVCP though.
