I've done some work on those but they aren't quite ready yet... I'm
trying to do something special with them.  When I wrapped vtkVector
et al., I hard-coded the list of types over which to specialize, but for
vtkTypeTemplate, I want vtkWrapPython to use vtkCommonHierarchy.txt
to automatically figure out what specializations of vtkTypeTemplate are
needed.
