is there a way to use the VSS (as requester) from Python rather 
simple way - with COM functions or so (win32com or cytpes)?  or 
only through a compiled SWIG extension or so?

CreateVssBackupComponents / vssapi.dll

seems to be a C++ only interface.

There is a "VSS.VSSCoordinator" in the COM browser. does it have 
to do anything with that...
