Can you fill me in with what in particular I should complain about?
Comments that RTTI was lacking brought the response that
QueryInterface was supported.

Also, (did I already ask this?) I'm guessing that using the
EnsureModule approach will make DispatchWithEvents unavailable.
Reading dynamic.py suggests that there is an alternate (more complex?)
way.

(I hate knowing what I want to do, but not how to do it.)
