Racket has this for C-based APIs. My mind is kind of wondering how this would ever be stable/maintainable to use for Python, but Lua seems possible but I would rather do my scripting in Racket then Lua and use the C APIs directly.

Looking at Julia (Which has a no "boiler plate" philosophy when using C or Fortan) the function is just called.

Interesting to look at for comparison
