  Is the fact that transformation conext not available from python:
   1/ just because we never added support ?
   2/ because this is failing now for some obscure reason ?
   3/ because we decided not provide access at that level ?

If 1/ then it seems tis should b added as a new class and make sure 
the proper methods are generated. If 2/ fix it. If 3/ then maybe we
need to revisit this because we really need to keep fine grained control
of the transformation process, even at the Python level.

  Now I can't remember, I assume 2/, I though this was accessible,
can't from memory be positive which one it is. Or maybe I misunderstood
something :-)
