Yeah imo makes sense. It's a bunch more code for you to make it work on i915 and amd, but it's not terrible. And avoids the dependencies, and also avoids the abuse of card* and dumb buffers. Plus not really more complex, you just need a table or something to match from the drm driver name to the driver-specific buffer create function. Everything else stays the same.
If it is going to get more complicated please write it in C then. We haven't done it yet, but you can link a C function through cython to the python test script
If you struggle here I can probably work out the build system bits, but it should not be too terrible
