I'd like to request a debug mode which works along these lines:

- For everything derived from QObject, connect to the dispose signal.  
At this time, save a stack trace and a pointer to the Python handle  
associated with the QObject
- When the signal is emitted, make sure that the usage count of the  
corresponding Python object is 0, too. If it isn't, print the saved  
stack trace and a new one saying that the usage count between Python  
and C++ is out of sync.

For the installation, the debug versions of the libraries should go  
into special directories so I can put them in the PATH (Windows) or  
the LD_LIBRARY_PATH (Linux) to select them when my code behaves odd.

Regards,
