It is not so scary that I would not take it on myself if I had the need.
Maybe you use real frames and only fake up the call into the tracecode.
What I'm thinking is that it is possible and can be done today without C level
changes to Python.
Maybe if there are changes to the C python it only needs a second tracehook
that runs for the
code in the sys.settrace only.
