IMO, the AT-SPI Python bindings are the AT-SPI IDL itself. That is,
one can speak "pure" AT-SPI IDL via PyBonobo, which is something I
prefer. In Orca, we try to restrict this to a single python module
as much as possible, but I think there would still be a significant
setback if the use of IDL were dropped.
