I know; I would prefer something shorter (pyUI; py is very common and
everybody knows it stands for python), but it is more or less OK.

BTW if things go the right way, perhaps the next qt/gtk/whatever gui
could be written in python itself. I even had the idea of doing
serialization/deserialization, plugin management and so on in python.
But it is not feasible now - attribute access is "quite slow", since it
relies on text serialization: so every number that is assigned is
converted to string and back, which is obviously not very efficient. But
for typical usage it is OK.

Regards, Vaclav.
