Note that QML itself will be part of mainline Qt4.7, so I guess it's just a
question of time (read: Phil's schedule :) until a bit more 'official'

There is a bit more to think about than just wrapping Qml* classes;
there are multiple interesting paths for creating QML + Python apps.
For one, it should be possible to avoid loading the PyQt libs
altogether (in the interest of smaller footprint& faster launch) -
just create a C++ application like qmlviewer, and embed python
interpreter to that. All the Qt facing code would be on the javascript
side, and the javascript code would be able to access the embedded
python interpreter through some exposed stubs. In the first phase,
even being able to exec/eval strings would get you started.
I personally don't see a good use case for putting Python somehow within
QML. QML already comes with its scripting language and bindings
(Javascript), so unless you are on a religion war, I don't see much
sense in putting Python in there.
It might make more sense to have a way to export PyQt classes to QML,
that is implement QMLElement in Python rather than in C++, and make them
available to QML itself.
