Thanks for the examples.
I had a 2 minutes look at a tutorial explaining how to write a GIMP plugin in Python and saw nothing wrong with it. It even looked cool. When and how does this fail?

Yup. I knew you'd say this. How about writing the bulk of GIMP itself in Python?
We actually have an example of this - it's called 'Blender'. If you look inside it then you'll see quite a lot of horror when their developers simply had to do some cross-layer hacks to achieve tolerable performance. Because even as a thin glue layer Python is not fast enough.
