Thanks for doing the experiments. I plan to implement a method in the SIP Python module that will provide direct access to the C++ dtor for the rare cases (of which this is probably the only one in PyQt) where the API being wrapped is lacking. The reason that I haven't done it yet is that the SIP module will be renamed in the "near" future from "libsip" to "sip", so if I add methods now I will soon be breaking them. Would you prefer to see libsip.sipCallDtor() in SIP v3.3 or can you wait for sip.sipCallDtor() in SIP v4.0?
