I've written a couple of articles on the proper Gmail API, why doesn't this just use that instead of scraping the DOM?

I don't think that this seeks to achieve the same thing as your articles. Does it?

The big selling point for me is the observation of events like compose window. You can then write code that plugs into the gmail interface.
