Just as an aside, since I know this a python for maya group and don't want
to derail this into some kind of flame war, but stuff like this is
ridiculously easy in Houdini as compared to Maya. Don't know if you're
there yet, but at some point, it just becomes easier to say "f*** it" and

I actually made a video about refactoring python for maya basics a little
while ago where I talk about some of that exact stuff! Never got around to
uploading it, I'll do that soon, maybe there will be something helpful in
it (depending on your coding prowess).
To echo Marcus, it's hard to be
I recently did a bunch of stuff scripting stuff into triple switches and
it's tricky largely bc of the area Andres is talking about. If all you're
doing is setting it up once, it's probably fine and not too hard, but all

I would look at message attributes. i.e. create a message attribute
somewhere on the rig (top level?) and plug the "message" attr of the shader
or shading group into that. Then it's persistent across maya sessions,etc.
Should be pretty easy to add to your script, too.
