Hi Michael,

There has been discussions about copy_reg.py and at least one other place in
the standard library that needs this; it is an essential part of the
descriptor model of new-style classes. In my opinion it should be made part
not only of the official C API but the Python one too, e.g. as a method of
'type' instances: type(x).lookup('name')

Yes, this would be good too. The patch should be trivial; I guess a little work is required to ensure b/w compat, but not very much really.

It should IMHO be possible to override that method, the _PyType_Lookup copy in
PyObjC that you mentioned earlier is slightly modified to deal with Objective-C
categories.
