This exists in CFFI (see ffi.new_handle()). More generally, wouldn't it make some sense to try to bring cppyy closer to cffi? It is a change of some of the basics, so only suitable for people without an existing code base. What I'm thinking of is if we could consider a cppyy-like interface as an extension of the cffi interface, like C++ is an extension of C, or if it doesn't really make sense.
