John,

  You cannot use the cocoa framework from python. If you get the
source code of wxPython, you'll see that the wxPyGetWinHandle function
always return the Carbon handle (static cast).
  I maintained the wxVTK at http://wxvtk.sf.net and even from C++ this
is not easy (or I could not get it right).
