It is in fact a very important matter. But a simple-minded implementation would be enough to produce a proof-of-concept.

In my original post my focus was on explaining as clearly as I could the basic concepts. For that reason (and others) I said little about implementation. If you like, I'd be very happy to discuss implementation with you and others, either here or on the Python C-API list. However, I'd like to put that off for a few days. And this would give others on this list an opportunity to comment. -- Jonathan
