Just like your previous bugreport, it's yet another thing that's already 
solved in pcb-rnd since long time ago. Not the syntax you suggested, not 
specifically coded for IPC, but everyhing is there to make it a few hours 
work to get an IPC-compatible smt script.

It's called parametric footprint. If you write footprintname(param, 
param, param) in gschem's footprint= attribute (or anywhere else in the 
GUI or files), pcb-rnd tries to execute script footprtintname instead of 
loading it as a footprint file. The syntax would be ipc_smt(12, 06) and 
ipc_smt(12, 06, 02) and the verbose versions could be ipc_smt(w=12, l=06, 
h=02).

The parametric footprint system has a web UI so you can easily try the 
existing scripts: http://igor2.repo.hu/cgi-bin/pcblib-param.cgi
