Aha, that does look like suitable fit for doing cfpython in a Qt
framework. I'm a little wary of that particular option though, due to
how it appears to have been unmaintained since May 2007. Unless it's
particularly bug-free, or we wish to take up maintenance of it, I'm not
sure if I'd consider it a good option or not.
