this means it can reuse the function for converting python to RNA types - giving more useful errors.
* Incorrect enum args lists valid values in their exception message (used for PyRNA and PyOperators).
* remove bpy_idprop.c and bpy_idprop.h
PyOperators are not usable since they run outside the UI loop atm.
* RNA_property_enum_value
* RNA_property_enum_identifier
To get an enum string from a value and a value from an enum.
BPy_StructRNA types (objects, meshes, images etc) can now be used as dictionary keys.

examples...
RNA Lamp: Lamp
==============
@ivar rna_type: RNA type definition. *readonly*
@type rna_type: PyRNA PointerProperty
@ivar name: Unique datablock ID name. (22 maximum length)
@type name: string
@ivar adapt_thresh: Threshold for Adaptive Sampling. in (0.000, 1.000)
@type adapt_thresh: float
@ivar area_shape: Shape of the Area lamp
@type area_shape: enum in [SQUARE, RECTANGLE]
@ivar area_size: Size of the area of the Area Lamp. in (0.000, 100.000)
@type area_size: float
@ivar area_sizey: Size of the area of the Area Lamp. in (0.000, 100.000)
@type area_sizey: float
- snip
RNA Object: Object
==================
@ivar rna_type: RNA type definition. *readonly*
@type rna_type: PyRNA PointerProperty
@ivar name: Unique datablock ID name. (22 maximum length)
@type name: string
@ivar data: Object data. *readonly*
@type data: PyRNA PointerProperty
@ivar fake_user: Saves this datablock even if it has no users
@type fake_user: bool
@ivar library: Library file the datablock is linked from. *readonly*
@type library: PyRNA PointerProperty
@ivar loc: in (-inf, inf)
@type loc: float[3]
Can now assign RNA arrays from python lists of bools/ints/floats
eg -> rna.scenes["Scene"].layer = [True] * 20
Also added exceptions when trying to set readonly properties.
* Matches the C/RNA api structure
* Thin wrapper ~(600 lines)
* No functions specific to any blender object type.
* Defines 2 types, BPy_StructRNA and BPy_PropertyRNA.
* Python 3.0 target (compatible with python 2.4,5,6)
* http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/PyRNA - continue docs/discussion here.
Todo
* Collection iterators
* Write access to data
* Define how constants should be accessed (as strings or some special type)
* Solve the "Python keeping invalid blender pointers" problem.
This cant just be solved in the py api - we need blender to notify when ID's are removed
Examples
Here are some examples that work with the current implementation of the api.
rna.lamps["Lamp.006"].energy -> (1.0)
rna.lamps["Lamp.007"].shadow -> ("NOSHADOW")
rna.materials.keys() -> ['flyingsquirrel_eye', 'frankie_skin', 'frankie_theeth']
rna.scenes["hud"].objects["num_text_p2_4"].data.novnormalflip -> False
rna.meshes["mymesh"].uv_layers.keys() -> ['UVTex', 'UVTex']
rna.meshes.items()

Notes
* Added python back, can only execute scripts from the command line with -P script.py
* bpy_interface.c is just enough functionality to run a python file.
