The vtkPythonArgs class was created in Oct 2010 by David Gobbi for.

This class provides methods for reading an argument tuple from Python
and converting it to types that can be used by VTK.  It is meant to be
more efficient and flexible that the original PyArg_ParseTuple() code,
resulting in wrapper code that is faster and more compact.
