No, not a real eequivalent. We seem to have overlooked it...

Which info? If you need to call a C++ method on that object, that's
right. However, if you store the data you need in the Perl object,
it'll still be OK from the deleted() handler, or from an ON_DESTROY
method, depending on the way your program works.

I should've added an ON_DELETE function. It's not that hard to add to
QtSmokeBinding::deleted()
