[PyQt] QWidget.windowHandle()

[Philipp A.]

QWindows aren’t parents of anything:

from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QWidget
from PyQt5.QtCore import QApplication
app = QApplication([])
w = QWidget()
w.parent()
w.show()
assert(w.parent() == None)

and why not include a preliminary API? it’s available in Qt, so people are
able to choose if they want to risk having to change if it changes. we PyQt
users should be able to do the same.
