some of the more compilcated cases (CF, Res) haven't been done yet. Also,
various types should inherit from each other (anything with an as_Resource
method should be a Resource subtype, the CF types should become one family).
descriptors in stead of manual getattr hooks to get at attributes
of the objects.
For Qd I have in stead gotten rid of most of the attribute access
in favor of the carbon-style accessor methods (with the exception
of visRgn, to be done later), and of the Carbon.Qd.qd global object,
for which accessor functions are also available.
For List I have fixed the fact that various methods were incorrectly
generated as functions.
CF is untouched: PEP252 doesn't allow "poor-mans-inheritance" with
basechain, so it will have to wait for PEP253 support.
And these can now be vectored through glue routines (by defining USE_TOOLBOX_OBJECT_GLUE) which will do the necessary imports, whereupon the module's init routine will tell the glue routine about the real conversion routine address and everything is fine again.
handle = Ctl.as_Resource(ctl)
ctl = Ctl.as_Control(handle)
and similarly for List, Menu, TE. The old handle.as_Control() methods are
still there for backward compatability.
