There are precedents for adding some functionality to the C API but
not documenting it to ensure "non advanced users" don't get hurt --
that's how we added the ability to raise exceptions in different
threads, in particular. Not sure if this is the best solution here,
but I'm just pointing out that it's definitely not "unthinkable",
procedurally speaking.
