I'm not sure that's a good idea. I deliberately didn't make
it a builtin type in Pyrex, because if you're using the language
properly, you're not supposed to need it. I didn't want to
create an attractive nuisance that would let people fall
into the trap of using 'PyObject' when they should really
be using 'object'.

IMO it would be better to think about how to enhance the
language to remove the need for using PyObject in the first
place.
