The Controller Layer is implemented in Objective-C and is a part of the  
Cocoa and Foundation frameworks.  PyObjC is compatible with the  
Controller Layer and, as such, the Controller Layer can be leveraged  
fully from within PyObjC based Cocoa applications.

There are a handful of caveats, the details of which are shifting as  
PyObjC evolves.

The Currency Converter can certainly be implemented in Python using  
PyObjC and the Controller Layer.
