Nice work Claudio. I was thinking about doing the same thing a while back, and stumbled across Nodebox which does a very similar thing, is in python, but unfortunately it is mac only - so I think your project is definitely worthwhile.
Good luck with it. I think in order to be successful, in the processing sense, it would be good to build a little bundled editor and interpreter, so the whole thing is standalone.
