I havent used either framework much but I would comment that for me the 'winning' framework should have have an API that others can programme against. Ultimately the python programmer using the QGIS api should be able to not only do simple data loading, visualisation and gui manipulation, but should also be able to use the rich analytical tools coming into QGIS in new and creative ways. In practice this would probably mean that the processing framework should not be a plugin, but rather become part of core and part of the analysis api. Martin had some interesting ideas about fusing python mode closely into the desktop app so it may be possible that an all python approach could be followed.
