Check out the python command "call" -- it allows you to run a command as if you were at a shell prompt. Using this and the ldb tools to modify the SAM database included with Samba4 you can create pretty much script any conceivable action for users/groups.
I'd personally recommend using ldbmodify with an ldif file over any of the other ldbtool, this will be the easiest to script. For some basics on ldif files, check out http://www.zytrax.com/books/ldap/ch8/ Also don't forget about MS AD tools -- they might not lend themselves to scripting but they give a very nice front for management.

I'd much rather not do this via calls out to samba-tool, and if I could do this remotely (via LDAP like calls) I'd be even happier.
