FWIW -- the MCA package for Matlab and Octave does not use EZCA.
Python-CA interface does not use EZCA neither.
Tatsuro Nakamura of KEKB in KEK wrote a python module named cas.py, based on _ca module. It provides simple CA interface and allow user to access just channel name rather than chid ,in Python of course.

I certainly hope that EZCA is not abandoned, because there is a LOT of
code in interpreted languages such as IDL, Visual Basic (and Matlab?)
that depends on it.  Those programs will certainly need some interface
layer between native CA and the scripting language, since they don't
directly support callbacks but do need to use CA monitors.  Programs in
those languages do not use the "chid" but rather the PV names, and
depend on the hash table and caching of chids that EZCA handles.
