What might work here is to pass a secret second arg to QueryInterface.  This
second arg can be the IID of the object returned from the call.  So
something like:

  ob = ob.QueryInterface(IID_IAutomationHook, pythoncom.IID_IDispatch)

should theretically perform the QI for IAutomationHook, but return the
resulting object in a PyIDispatch wrapper.

What happens after that is anyone's guess though ;)
