I definitely agree that we'll always need people who think like programmers. We can develop tools in the vein of those you mention to significantly enhance the productivity of those people though. I haven't seen many tools like that that help in distributed systems or that allow one to easily visualize and understand an entire system.

That's hard. Good news for you is that there's plenty of ongoing work on toolkits and methods for doing that. All alpha quality for now. We'll just have to wait.
