[python-win32] Can I pass non-VARIANT SAFARRAYs via COM withoutconverting to VA RIANT?

Not without patching the code, I'm afraid.  The code (oleargs.cpp) has
explicit support for VT_UI1, but everything else does go through the generic
variant conversion.  Additional support for other types could be added, but
I'm wondering if specific support for numarray would make sense.  I'd be
happy to offer guidance should you choose to look at these enhancements.
