This discussion has already occurred a long time ago.

The conclusion, per Tom, was that tla will not provide support for (3)
whenever the desired effect can achieved by (1).

Then aba was created as proof-of-concept for such wrappers. Apparently,
Tom's position has not changed, so you should probably turn to fai, the
successor of aba.

A related discussion, that you have not touched yet, is whether there
should be one official front-end to tla, and what should it be.
