I am *soooo* behind on email due to Pycon, but another very interesting option
that got a lot of buzz here was the cffi module.  It's supposed to be a much
better ctypes like thing, and a half cross with cython.  But I don't know the
Qt bindings, and cffi works with C not C++ so I don't know whether that's
appropriate or not.

FWIW, cffi comes out of the PyPy project and is a candidate for the stdlib in
Python 3.4.

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/cffi/0.5

I haven't used it yet, but it looks darn cool.
