I'm not against wrappers, particularly if the documentation makes it clear 
what the wrapper is wrapping. Wrappers+documentation can be used as a 
learning tool to show how the raster/raster operations are really the same 
thing as the corresponding vector/vector operation.

BTW: I posted this to the devel list, but anyone on the users list 
interested is also welcome to review and criticize my "philosophy" on 
homogeneous vector/raster operations. This is mostly for my own benefit to 
try and wrap my head around the big picture by teasing out the fundamental 
issues.
