Hi Hasala,

You could look at changing SWIG under the 'Compiler' topic. Something 
that could be researched and possibly developed is replacing the SWIG 
parser with a modified Clang or g++ parser. There are some fundamental 
differences which would need addressing... SWIG does not always 
following #include and works without full type information are two that 
come to mind.

There are plenty of things which could be done and there are some ideas 
from the GSoC 2012 page at 
http://codewrapper.com/wiki/index.php?title=SWIG_GSoC_2012_ideas_page.

Nested classes is another feature that is missing. I hope some of those 
ideas wet your appetite. Anyone else have ideas?
