tbpy plugin idea

(resend)

I've gotten basic trackback functionality working on my blog via tbpy.

http://www.alfheimstudios.com/blog/blogspace/trackback.html

As I state in the above post, I'd really like tighter integration 
between pyblosxom and tbpy, especially for accessing and managing the tb 
entries, so here's some ideas for a tbpyb plugin:
  * Returns a count of trackbacks for the current entry
  * Exposes the rss trackbacks for the current entry as xml and html
  * Stores config variables for tbpy settings like url, data dir for 
embedding the RDF entries in your flav templates and accessing the rss 
tbpy files.

I have a couple of questions for the group before I charge down this path:
1) Has this already been done? Is this a desirable featureset to the 
group at large?
2) The complexity appears to be low enough for "My First Python 
Project", as I'm just going to be reading some rss/xml files in the tbpy 
data directory and generating html from them. True?
3) Am I missing some critical design/architecture flaw in this premise?

Any feedback appreciated! --L
