Please ignore this, my memory was playing up. You can use MI 
inheritance with ObjC classes, as long as
only the first, and only the first, base class is an Objective-C class. 
However, if you add actions using mixins you code would not be as 
efficient as possible and I would advise against doing that. That 
doesn't seem to be a problem in this case.

I'm typing this while away from an Internet connections (I'm at 
www.europython.org, and sporadicly check my mail between sessions), so 
maybe the problem is already solved. If it isn't, it would be very 
helpfull of you could create a minimal program that reproduces the 
problem.
