Actually it's a KSpread plugin, but it needs a lot of work before
it's releasable - consider it vaporware. KParts/plugins/panel
applets are all basically the Same Thing. I'll probably do the
panel applet stuff first, since that's more developer-oriented and
doesn't require as much documentation. 

I haven't got the packaging all sorted out yet, but it'll probably
be a base library/plugin that wraps/interfaces libpython and then
individual plugins or libraries for specific apps (like KSpread) or
functions (like panel applets) that load and communicate with the
libpython plugin. Partitioning that stuff still needs some work.
