It is amazing to me how many people use a computer today are not computer literate. It is painful to watch some people use the PC. Computer literate to me is that you understand...

...what a folder/directory is.
...how to navigate in Explorer with the folders view open.
...how to navigate in the cmd window.
...what the PATH is.
...what the windows update shield means.
...how to customize/navigate their start menu so they don't just have 50 icons on the desk top.
...that you can delete an installer after you run it (rather than leaving it as an icon on your deskop.

Anyway... I see no reason why you could not make a Python UI for this. Other than the fact that creating DRM removing tools is a violation of the DMCA (in the US). The command line script is just the least common denominator and very easy to distribute since it is just plan text.
