This has been explained, but let's talk about what we WILL have:
Mac::Glue.  
I don't know much about Scripting Bridge -- I await seeing some examples
for 
other languages -- but I am not sure Scripting Bridge in whatever form
would 
even be preferable to Mac::Glue.

I imagine it does some things better than Mac::Glue (and perhaps some
things 
outside of Mac::Glue's scope?), but that just gives me ways to improve 
Mac::Glue.  I imagine, for example, it might do dynamic autogeneration of 
glues, which is something I want to add to Mac::Glue.

I am likely going to start a Mac::Glue feature expansion project soon, and

will be looking for wishlist items. Stay tuned.
