Hi, I have the feeling that it's probably (unadvisably) hard to navigate around AETEMPLATE scripts for custom attr. Editor layouts. But you can use a custom AETEMPLATE written in Melscript as the entry point for your pyside code and build the ui from there on. There is a tutorial from Dan ostrov that might give some good hints http://danostrov.com/2012/10/27/building-aetemplates-with-pyqt/
In general aetemplate scripts are about the only occasion where I need to write mel, and I feel like it is amongst the weakest spots in maya scripting. An easy and pythonic system here would result in a great amount of diverse user modified guis with pysides rich widget library, I guess.
