Just from looking at the code, I can see that it is pretty far ahead of
everything else that we can get, at least for the administration side of
things. With not too much work, it would make a good end-user interface,
too.

Yes, I read your docs. I'd rather not take time away to set it up here,
but I may end up doing that.

Too cool.
I certainly hope that somehow this can be melded with 2.0; I really don't
savor the thought of writing this by myself and there hasn't really been a
flood of volunteers to write new code.
Looking at the code, it appears that a good portion of the nasty
interactions with 1.9x has been kept within well-named subroutines. I've
tried to make the core interaction in 2.0 non-nasty, so these should be
replaceable by simple function calls.
I'm going to keep looking into it. One thing bugs me a bit, though. If
I'm not mistaken, every form submission just reruns the script with
different parameters. This means that the Majordomo objects aren't really
kept around long. I don't think this is a problem, but the compilation
time is just going to be painful. I'm working on cutting it down and have
convinced some other module authors to make this easier for me, but it
still isn't down to something manageable.
