even if we could do

for ob in Blender.Objects:
...

or
ob = Blender.Objects['myOb']

It seems cludgy to make these types mix the new and the old. on the C side.

Also mixes up the new API with the old one.. so if we want to drop the 
old API and the move would be more messy..


Thinking about it Id like to have Blender.objects, scenes etc.

Then we can also add some new types like Blender.config suggested by 
Willain, to replace Blender.Get/Set
