Hi all. So, I found a bug in the python bindings that I'd really like to fix, but when I sat down to do so I quickly found myself mired in a swampy mess of code generation: generator.py. [snip]
Historic, the same generator is used by libxml2 and libxslt at least.
Ah, ok. So, it's just a re-use of already-existing code. That makes me feel better. :-) Thanks for the background info.

Hum, right, but really even at the C level you want to keep the connection around as long as you manipulate the domain.
It sounds like you are suggesting that it might be better to add a back-reference in the underlying C code instead instead of just the Python code. Did I understand you correctly?
I would let python do that by making sure domain classes have a reference to the connection class, then Python will manage the count by itself. Could you bugzilla this, so I don't forget ?
