Ideally we should have pure .sh and .bat scripts to be portable without any dependency - but that's much to much struggle IMO.
I think python is a good platform for running the console admin operations. Perhaps even better than java if the console is aimed for sys admins. And the fact that we already have the nice stuff from Michal makes me think python is the way the go
