I think the main blocker here is logging; second is /how/.

Logging: since |logging| is a global module rather than an instantiated class, we end up with duplicate log lines when we load a second instance of BaseScript.  We might be able to be smarter here.

Launching the second script: ideas currently include

a) run_command(), which will potentially contaminate the 2nd instance with the 1st instance's sys.path, venv, logging,
b) exec, which will need careful windows testing, or
c) a second script that ScriptFactory calls.

I'm probably not going to get to this any time soon.

I think bug 1078362 would make this unnecessary.
