I wouldn't stop there at all. Take a look at the source code for those 3rd party modules. Its most likely that they use the Win32 API (or another C api). If so you can use ctypes to just load the right DLL and call the needed functions directly from Python. No 3rd party module is needed. I have done this myself for other areas of Win32 API and it works just fine.
