I don't mind any direction whether it's Java or Python.
(I'm much more fluent in Java than in Python... )
It opens up many new possibilities, like the mentioned JMX querying, 
also I guess we could reuse some auto-completion facilities from AS7 CLI.
Actually my first attempt at this was simple Java hotrod console 
(https://github.com/mlinhard/demo-hotrod-console)

What I'd like to see in there is similar client abstraction layer 
(support chosen set of operation for all three clients, hotrod, 
memcached, rest)
I and Rado Husar already did limited version of that in Java for QA 
performance tests: 
https://svn.devel.redhat.com/repos/jboss-qa/edg/edg-adapter/trunk

I'm glad about these efforts, good CLI makes EDG QA much easier.
