If the new /Transfer/ function annotation were to be applied to

What about queryList()/findChildren()? In my original code, the
C++-allocated instance was accessed through a queryList() call. It's
basically the same (getting a reference to a C++ instance never seen
before by Python), but I guess the annotation won't be enough...

You didn't answer this: is the annotation going to work also for the queryList() / findChildren() case?

I wonder: can't you just apply it automatically to all cases where you
create a wrapper for an already existing C++ object that was never
wrapped before? How can't that be wrong?

Because you would be making the (possibly incorrect) assumption that the new one was a child of self.

What about asking for its parent, then? And if the parent is not wrapped in Python, creating a wrapper for it and asking again for its parent (etc. etc.)?
