While if I were one of your future users I would also prefer PHP as the 
embedded language, you might look at people's experiences embedding 
python, for ideas.

(I haven't used python much; just a little tinkering in the mailman list 
manager which is written in python; it seems a decent enough scripting 
language. And I was able to do that tinkering without knowing anything 
about python, which is a Plus.)
