Integrating this properly - or rather an enhanced version of it - was 
one of the ideas mooted for the next version of Boost.Python some 
months ago. Some clever metaprogramming can even allow python to work 
with arbitrary function pointers for callbacks :) However I don't 
think it's on the cards for what Jim is currently planning.
