This is really cool David, thanks for adding this!

It's probably time to remove the workarounds that trick the wrappers
into thinking DataArray is the superclass of the AOSArray subclasses.
That's mainly a leftover from when the wrappers couldn't handle
templates. I suppose if it's working for SOA arrays, it should work
for AOS, too.
