I have a paper in writing that summarizes reasons for a complete rewrite 
of the typo3 core. Several points are strong object orientation, 
interfacing, unified storage api, document model, and much much more.
As I haven't much time I'm far from writing it finish at the moment, but 
I hope to have it releaseable in one or two weeks.

But I see it also like you, rewriting is the most powerful way as you 
can drop deprecated stuff quite simple and you can concentrate on a 
clean api and a clean system design.

Kind regards
