Python is slow but I've seen several desktop applications having time-critical parts in C or C++ and GUI layer written in python. Which is easy and readable and contains many modules of graphical/GUI libraries. Might be an option for you, too.Yes but even without the legal stuff Java has some very strange ways of doing certain 'normal' things imho.
Python caught my interest as it might be good for my normal day job too. Also blender uses it, so it must do something well.
