prototyping good OOdesign in Python?

This means that after prototyping in Python one /incrementally/ refactors 
elements into C++ (hopefully via the Boost Python Library). Of course the 
speed elements go into C++, as do the elements that bind with legacy C++ 
stuff.

It's what the Python community already does. We don't crack JPEG files in 
Python; we just call into a C layer like imlib, via a binding layer.
