>From perspective of a user I'd like those wrappers be written in a
scripted language so they're easy to hack. Because sh(1) doesn't have
smth like FFI we'd need one command that exports all functions from the
library. Some port managing tools could then bypass those wrappers when
doing complex tasks.
