[PyKDE] Notifying self on all emits _OR_ overriding default emit behavior

I heard Myddrin said:

Oh! I see. :)

Well, I'm not really sure I grasp your problem there... Signals and 
slots are pretty much a compile-time information, as per Qt's design, 
and I'll venture to say that if you need to discover them at run-time 
there might be a design issue in your program maybe...?

For instance, if you don't know before run-time what signals are likely 
to get emitted, and thus don't know their semantics, what exactly will 
you be doing with them? Connect them to slots that may end up being 
incompatible...? Darn, I really feel that I must be missing something 
here. Argh.

If they are hand-made Python signals, maybe the most effective approach 
would be to register them at class level... I mean, what if MyWidget 
had something like a signalRegistry attribute that would contain the 
name of the PYSIGNALs that particular instance will want to emit? Or 
better yet, have a single signal that would emit its type as an 
argument, such as, say, webEvent("linkClicked", url), where 
"linkClicked" would be the type of the webEvent signal...

Or something like that. I'm really having a hard time seeing the big 
picture about your approach, so I could be missing something.

Good luck with the house hunting!
