It should be possible, but it may require writing some code by hand (or 
teaching a wrapper generator) because the VTK and PyQt wrappings are not 
compatible.  This is on my todo list.

Reparenting is currently not supported with QVTKRenderWindowInteractor.py, but 
I think it can be worked around by giving it a parent QWidget, and doing the 
reparenting on the parent.
