have to call FastDelete() from Python; if you have a Python script that
leaks references to VTK objects, it's an error-of-omission that needs to be
fixed in the Python wrappings.

Going a bit further even than that, in VTK 6.0 the functions Register(),
UnRegister(), and FastDelete() will probably be removed from python
completely.  Only GetReferenceCount() and SetReferenceCount() will remain,
the former for diagnostic purposes and the latter because people know that
they're playing with fire when they use it.
