The short answer is "no" :(  It could be done by someone suitably 
motivated though :)

It is quite tricky due to the event processing requirements of the GUI. 
  Pythonwin's interact.py module uses the code module to implement the 
interactive window, and it jumps through nasty hoops to make it work.
