[IronPython] CustomSymbolDictionary and conversions

Hi Seshadri,

I see, makes sense.

When accessing the baseScope from your example, isn't
SymbolTable.IdToString(key) for each access to the baseScope slow?
I wonder, why there is no ScriptScope.GetVariable(SymbolId) method.

What would be the approach to extend a ScriptScope by the properties of 
an object? Or in other words: How can I evaluate an expression in an 
object's scope?
