I heard Michael Thompson said:

Yeah, I'd sort of second that.

The 'pythonic' way is pretty much duck typing, I think, in this sort of 
situation. How difficult would it be to wrap QString in a class that 
would also implement all that str (or unicode) does? Possibly by 
wrapping QString methods, in fact, for performance. That way, you get 
something that looks like a str, acts like a str, smells like a str, 
and really is a QString under the hood. Grooviness.

That'd make me Happy(tm).

(And just so I know, how far up my butt have I stuck my head there?)

Ta ta,
