  yes,

on input, the nodesets are received as an array of python libxml2.xmlCore
class instances (well that's what I expect to happen).

on output the main problem is if you generate new nodes to find a way to
deallocate them. Since you have a gnome-xml checkout, look at 
    python/tests/xpathret.py
basically the new nodes created in the foo() extension function
are kept in a new document, which in turn is freed at the end of the
processing.

P.S.: seen your mail on Py-XML SIG but decided to stay quiet ;-)
