That's kind of what I was thinking as you "vanished" from this list
around mid december.

I only write this to confirm that the python code generated with the
patched pyuic4 actually works and a widget using the ui is displaying
everything correct. 

I hope Phil includes it in the next snapshot (it wasn't in tonights).

Regarding the "for now": I guess you mean the manual inclusion of
QObject as base class when the extends element is empty. That is a ugly
hack indeed, but actually I didn't want to dive into the depth of pyuic4
to find out why it needs a QObject or QWidget there. Especially as this
base class is not used anywhere, i.e. the ui-class is derived from
python "object" and nothing else.
