It seems that there is already SAGA Python Bindings.

Thanks Noli for pointing this out.

You are confusing saga (an api for grid computing  http://saga.cct.lsu.edu/) with saga gis (  http://www.saga-gis.org ).

But: saga gis also has a python api based on swig. Some examples are here:  http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/saga-gis/raw-attachment/wiki/MiscWikiFiles/saga_2_python.zip

In case people are interested: I have a script which parses the module parameters to create some test scripts which can be useful as a start for such a module - I'll check if everything works ok with the current version and try to add some documentation on how to build the saga python extensions to the wiki and then ping back.
