I think there's a huge unmet gap there that's actually being blocked by big businesses for business (not engineering) reasons. The ability of end-user to quickly and simply tune their device to their needs and automate stuff.
The very concept flies in the face of what is today's accepted UX "best practices", i.e. to make software trivial, engaging and masterable in 5 seconds. It naturally happens by removing any kind of thing there is to be mastered.
The task you performed with Python should be easily scriptable at the OS level. It shouldn't require one to know complex programming languages and toolkits. Similarly, I think that a tool like Tasker[0], maybe with a bit better interface, should be available by default in vanilla Android. We're vastly underutilizing the power of computing devices by restricting end user's ability to work with them.
