From what I understand you can still write the code the way you have in the past. For instance, if your PID loop works better than theirs, then use yours instead! The graphical interface may be able to take advantage of the scripting languange and become even more robust.

There are two parts to this discussion. First, those who love to code for the sake of coding (yes, it's fun, challenging, frustrating and rewarding) and those who code for the sake of accomplishing a task! Different goals and both can now be accomplished.

Those who have implemented a cool feature in the past that may fit into a scripting language by all means write the new command so others can implement it their code; as a scripting element. This is just plain good software engineering; software re-use and abstraction are the two main principals that come to mind.

Now is the time for the hot-shot coders to step up and really show off their stuff and the wet behind the ears coders to pay close attention to whats going on!
