wrt primitiveness, try the d.frame.split addon script. (for grass 6)
and to a lesser extent d.rast.leg. I think "low-level" may be a
better term for the module's UI vs. "primitive". It does well in
scripts.

also have a look at the swig/python/examples/m.distance python script
for a fully non-interactive version.

r.what already provides a non-interactive d.what.rast, and
although I am not very familiar with it, v.what exists and
seems to work. So not much to do here.
