ref and proxy classes are based on:
http://code.activestate.com/recipes/81253/#c5
Modified proxy to support a quiet concept for callbacks that can
simply pass if they were not valid, instead of raising an exception.
Callback event dispatch based on:
http://code.activestate.com/recipes/578299-pyqt-pyside-thread-safe-global-queue-main-loop-int/
Modified to simplify the process, by removing the Queue and threaded dispatcher,
and just using a more developed Event object that posts directly to the event loop.
