[C++-sig] operator ->, cast operator

i see there are easy methods of exporting operators that deal with
values and mathematical operations, but is there any chance of exporting
pointer-to operators?
in this particular case i am exporting a custom interface pointer class
to python.
in c++ i can use such a smart pointer like this:
Ptr<View> view(L"µ.Sandoz.View");
if (view)
{
view->Attach(hWnd, true);
...
where Ptr<T> exposes its member T _object using
InterfaceType* operator->()
{
return _object;
}
i'm exposing Ptr<View> as "View" and the View interface as
"ViewInterface" to python.
what i'd like to write in python would be something along the lines of
view = View("µ.Sandoz.View")
view.Attach(self.window, true)
can i realize this without much trouble?
