Does it do any kind of cut-off after too many bytecodes are executed
already? I wasn't able to find a reference to this in the docs so I
assume not. It'd be very neat if it did that, though. :)

I know, I know. :) I was just toying around with it -- I'll investigate
the source later. I can't wait for a fully functional PythonMethod
though; it'd be so much easier to do advanced stuff then inside the Zope
environment!
