Unfortunately, the only way I see now is to call a Python subroutine
by SHELL or EXEC (but I'm terribly far away to know all about GB).

This will look ugly, but it is the only way to take the best of the 2 worlds:
GUI from GB, nice and accurate calculation from Python.

Apart ugliness, benefits can be large: think about directly writing .XLS
or .ODS or .PDF for your users, or use whatever templates systems you want
to generate nifty docs :)
