there are some real issues here, inasmuch that it can't be known
until run-time what interfaces are supported, and lots of type
information disappears down the toilet around queryInterfaces and
'any's. Unfortunately, this makes the API hardly fit-for-purpose for
simple scripting use, but extending the API to make it fit (eg. by
having a flat set of implementation interfaces - complete with
default parameter types etc.) is conceptually problematic ;-)
Is it similarly as convoluted and difficult to have an explanation with,
say, RuntimeExceptions? For instance, with a document with only one
sheet, one should not be able to remove the last sheet, right?
>>> doc.Sheets.removeByName('Sheet1')

/home/kevin/ram/temoa/branches/tmpp/<ipython console> in <module>()
com.sun.star.uno.RuntimeException:

Which is correct of course, but not terribly elucidating (note the empty
trailing colon). Would this be a simple case of putting an RTL...string
in removeByName in docuno.cxx?
