I've just given it a shot, and it didn't really do the trick for me, either. 
There are still two bugs in the module:

 * The box for the arrow does not take the (calculated) value sw in the
   function, but uses a.shaftwidth directly
 * For very long arrows the box becomes too thin. To mock the behaviour
   as in VPython the shaftwidth should be limited to 1/50 th of the arrow
   length.

Attached is a minimal patch against the 2009-06-14 version that should fix 
that.
