However, I do not know of a single GUI plugin that actually implement this. So, the only way for you is to prey open the code, and figure out how to wrap the functionality in a script that runs from the command line.

Actually, the CalibreSpy GUI plugin is supposed to be normally run from the command line so multiple Libraries can be viewed simultaneously without the Calibre GUI being executed at all.
