Our current plan doesn't won't really have to contend with problems in the future, as we want to add the Farbic implementation in the next release cycle. I'm also working on refactoring the code a bit - I'm adding an abstraction that would allow us to easily replace the pexpect implementation with Fabric (with no impact on DTS behavior - the same APIs will need to be implemented). Also, we'll remove the pexpect implementation once Fabric is in place (unless we can think of a reason for pexpect to stay, in which case we'll need to refactor it). I think that instead of focusing on pexpect we could focus on making sure the replacement won't cause any issues. What do you think?

That makes sense. I would suggest however to put comments around
implementation hacks and the public APIs simply to not forget.

Though I'd do the refactoring sooner than later because once tests start
being merged there will be a higher possibility of them relying on
hacks.
