If you want to undertake such a thing, that would be great.  The other fairly complex OS plugin that exists in the wild is the one that ships with the Darwin Kernel Debug Kit.  You can get this from http://developer.apple.com/download/more - you need a free ADC account to get this, though if that's a problem I can also get you a copy of the Python code for the OS plugin.  If you're going to make some common utilities you might have a look at what that one does if you haven't already.

I think we can change that by, for example, upstreaming to LLDB an OS python plug-in which can be used by all clients and may contain a lot of utility functions and useful mechanisms like logging, type summaries and so on.
