Using this I could end up calling any function, right? Isn't this somewhat unsafe?

you could only call function that are within namespace of funcs. of course you should filter all user input, it's rule correct even in Python, but you can make funcs to be a clean interface module, which you probably should do anyway. getattr also allows for a default fallback values.
