BSD is too permissive. The largest part of the project is a library (a
Python module), and it does the heavy lifting. I don't want someone
making a GUI and using the module for all the important stuff unless
they make the source available.

Not at all. I don't care about usage. I have no problem if someone uses
the app for business purposes.

The project most similar to what I have in mind is MeGUI, which uses the
GPL.

Yeah, I know, but you never know who's going to want to write the next
shovelware video converter for a quick buck and decide to use as much
freely available code as possible to do it.

Of course. I just do not want anyone directly profiting from my work
(not unless a good chunk of change is headed my way, anyway :P ).

I think I'll go with the AGPL v3.
