Lights for each game should only be done once the game is launched (because ledwiz is slow to respond).
Attractmode sequences could be started via a simple script or batch file when the fe launches. 
Idle sequences could be tied into a screensaver. 
The only thing that should really be internalized is the event-based animations.  I can see it for that, but not so much for the rest.  Even then it's much better to setup the fe so that it looks for a batch file or exe and launches it rather than doing it internally.  This way the user doesn't have to worry about the type of hardware they have as they can rig something up regardless. 
I'm on my third fe here, I've learned that you need to exteralize as much as possible.
Just a suggestion.

New Sub Question for MaLa users:
If such a external program were written that supported the Led-Wiz including 'MaLa event-based animations' who would want/use that?

Duster72:
I would use it.

Samanai:
Ditto.
