Replying to the last mail from James Lavery, but bringing 
up a larger issue

No, there aren't yet; wxPython puts user contributions in
wxPython.lib, but Python has a nice feature that lets you do
from wxPython.lib import fooclass ( or something like this ),
and the use fooclass withour qualification. I'd like
to have the Wx:: prefix ( same CPAN dir ), so,
Wx::lib::someclass, or Wx::extra::someclass, or
Wx::Plsomeclass are all valid choices.

What do the others think?
