Your initial solution seems like it'd work:
class Wrap(object):
  def __init__(self, ctx):
    self.ctx = ctx

  def __getattr__(self, name):
    def myf(*args, **kwargs):
      getattr(self.ctx, name)(*args, **kwargs)
      return self
    return myf

There are benefits to being less dynamic, but this might be good enough.
