That might be a worthwhile approach.  I think it would be less flexible
than making bindings for all the mythtv libraries in python, but it would
be lot simpler (probably be less of a moving target as well)

I've worked quite a bit on implementing python bindings for libmyth and
got it to the point where it would compile, but the module segfaulted the
python interpreter when I did an "import mythtv".  I never did find the
problem and of course Myth changed to the plugin architecture which makes
doing straight bindings more difficult.
