That probably does need to be done in C.

You could use a slave process to do that part, but it would need to be
persistent; you can't spawn a new command for each operation.

If the Python code is loading a binary module which uses the GRASS
libraries, the digitiser needs to be a separate process from the rest
of wxgrass.
