As for mixing strings with code, I still need to adhere to Python's syntax in order to avoid syntax errors. Anyway, syntax errors in strings are caught at "rewriting time". Using words instead of operators would also cause some problems.
I understand why you had to use strings as code. I had two concerns about that. One, you didn't explain it - I had to figure it out on my own. And two, if a solution is supposed to make things cleaner, but ends up introducing warts like that... maybe it's not worth it. What you implemented is interesting, no doubt, but I wouldn't want to use it for that reason.
However, I think you would benefit greatly from having improved examples. Even if people don't use your module, they can still build on your ideas if it's well explained.

It's that too much to ask?
I'm assuming that you want people to use your work. People need convincing. There are thousands and thousands of ideas and projects out there. The ones that are well explained are the ones that will get attention. I do research for a living. The research itself is only half the job. Presenting the research - convincing people that what I did is important and useful - is the other half.
Basically, what is your objective: do you want to be right, or do you want to be heard? You said you welcome constructive criticism. That is what I'm trying to provide - except it's not about your work itself, but about better ways to present it.
I'm not trying to convince anyone that my "project" is useful because that's not my project anymore. Anyone can look at it, dissect it, propose new feature, etc... Now that the thrill of the exploration is almost over, I'm losing interest... but I'll keep an eye on my repository on bitbucket.
By the way, if someone could provide better examples, documentation, etc... I'd be grateful. Let's just say I'm not much into the "convincing thing". If you need convincing, don't look at me. I gave you an object. Now it's your job to figure out what to do with it (or just toss it away) ;)
