Thanks. Hm.

I've currently done this in python:

***
f = MyWidget() # MyWidget is a boost::python wrapped object that 		
                # inherits QTimer, that has start()

#
def _q_getattr(self, attr):
     if type(self) == type(type(MyWidget)):
         raise AttributeError
     else:
	return getattr(sip.wrapinstance(self.myself(), QObject), attr)

MyWidget.__getattr__ = _q_getattr

f.start() # works! :)
***

But I want to implement __dir__ in the same way to get full coverage, 
and that's trickier.
