I have now added the grass.py module to SVN trunk, at
lib/python/grass.py. It gets installed to the $GISBASE/etc/python
directory, which is added to PYTHONPATH by Init.sh, so scripts can use
"import grass" to use the functions which it provides.

Apart from the subprocess wrappers, it provides interfaces to several
common g.* modules: g.parser, g.message, g.tempfile, g.gisenv,
g.region, g.findfile, and g.list.

This should largely eliminate the need for scripts to call those
modules directly, at least for the most common usage.
