your motivation is really great. I had such ideas in my head also in the 
past. But I think Typoscript is the totally wrong way.

The TYPO3 community has the mind to find an own way to do something when 
a problem must be resolved.

There are configuration systems out there.
Partly there are usable systems as example in java, there are xml 
examples also.

Why starting an own proprietary way?

When backward compatibilities isn't possible it only shows that there 
are several parts of the system that have to be redesigned.
As ZOPE3 shows: Sometimes a break gives you the chance to cleanup the 
system.

Just my 2 cents.

Kind regards

Sven
