[Qgis-developer] QgsLegendInterface binding updates, or QgsLegend overhaul?

[Larry Shaffer]

Hi,

I added to QgsLegendInterface today [0] and noticed how lacking the
Python binding is when working with the legend, compared to the number
of methods that could be exposed from QgsLegend. Looks like
QgsLegendInterface really hasn't been updated since QGIS 1.5.

Users/plugin devs have asked for better means of working with the
legend, so my questions are:

* Should there be an effort to bring many of the reasonable-to-expose
methods from QgsLegend to QgsLegendInterface for 2.0 release?

* OR, should QgsLegend be overhauled first (as there has been talk about)?
