I would not rely on the ufo export but export the .ufos myself from within the script. And have you tried glyphslib? That can write a designspace file from a .glyphs file and back.

Makes sense RE: exporting UFOs. It will be necessary anyway if people use brace/bracket layers.

Did not know about glyphslib - nice! I guess I should just turn this script into a UI for it :)

I tried it some time ago to run glyphsLib from within Glyphs. The API should allow it. But it might need some tweaking.
