rather than having the scripting support built into a Twitter client, why not just ask Twitter client authors to allow their clients to be pointed at alternate hosts that implement the Twitter APIs besides Twitter’s own servers?

This would allow us to implement Twitter “proxies”, so that even the most basic of Twitter clients could take advantage of all sorts of extra features and functionality that might get wrapped around those APIs.
