Hi Daniel,
As far as I know...

1) Python won't replace TCL, but work alongside.
2) There is already a Python FME Objects API
3) Python is now supported as a start/end script (FME_BEGIN_PYTHON) in
FME2006 onwards
4) An @python function (which would probably be the basis for a
pythonCaller transformer) is listed in our database with a target of
FME2006-GB. However, I can't say that this won't be pushed back by
something more important.

Also, I don't know if it's of any use, but I think you can run a
python script within ArcGIS and call an FME workspace. There's some
more info on fmepedia...
http://www.fmepedia.com/index.php/TOP10_and_ESRI

Hope this helps. If I hear any more info I'll post it here.
