The current approach is certainly ad-hoc and ugly; I have been loosely
thinking about things along the lines of what you suggest, and I am
glad you pushed this to an actual proof of concept: it's both natural
and lovely :-)
At the same time, it's getting far enough from the KISS principle to
get me uncomfortable. Isn't the use of meta-meta classes overkill (and
thus potentially fragile, if we are not sure of a Python/Cython rock
solid support) for the problem at hand?
Honestly, I really don't know ...
Cheers,
Nicolas
