NAK.

Even though I like Go (and I like it a lot), I wouldn't ever use it for
tasks which are best handled by a scripting language.

Also, there are some pain points on how to handle security updates for
Go: right now, when a security issue pops up in the stdlib or a 3rd
party package, everything that depends on the updated package MUST be
rebuilt and pushed as a security update, not just the package itself.

And guess what? The worst case scenario is a security issue in the
stdlib itself (which already happened multiple times - see the
crypto/tls package).
