I don't think he's asking for rope-like behaviour here.
Rather, he's asking for iterator-like or view-like
behaviour -- for the same reasons we have both zip() and
izip(), for example, or that dict.items() became a
view in Py3. It seems like a reasonable request to me.

However, I'm wondering whether the ctypes module might
already provide what he wants.
