I've addressed this in in the revised script that I've just sent in a separate mail.

Python has also been required by the previous version of the script.  So my proposed changes don't make the situation worse.

I agree that a full plugin would be ideal.  I think that it would ideally be hosted in a separate git repo on Github, so that Pathogen or Vundle can be used to install it.  However, I don't plan to create such a plugin anytime soon.
