Scripting engine upgrade?

I’ve been fighting again for days with scripting and with all the flaws like lack of catching error messages, side effects of MT variables containing dash (‘-’), strange concurrency execution of event scripts, and the general lack of tools for debugging and tracing. Any chance there will be a decent scripting engine upgrade in ros7 that at least can catch error messages?

Personally I’d love a standard language like micro/tiny python that will even run on a small 8-pit PIC with footprint < 64kb. (Well, you can always dream..)
