When any2PyObject is given an interface which is actually an adapter for a Python object, it now returns the original Python object instead of a new wrapper for the object. This means that calling methods on the returned object will be faster because they won’t involve UNO bridging. It also means that Python implementations of UNO interfaces can detect when they are given Python objects as a parameter and take advantage of any internal private data attached to the object.

LibreOffice API IDL Files Except UDK API
Contains all of the IDL files except those in udkapi.
i.e. the interfaces that are specific to the LibreOffice application. An artificial (?) separation.
The reference offapi/type_reference/offapi.idl and
udkapi/type_reference/udkapi.idl (formerly combined into a single
offapi/type_reference/types.rdb) are used to detect inadvertent incompatible
changes. They are plain-text .idl files (not strictly lexicographically sorted,
though, so they satisfy the .idl file requirements for no forward dependencies),
so in cases where we deliberately /do/ become incompatible they can be modified
manually.
Old such cases of deliberately becoming incompatible are listed in
offapi/type_reference/typelibrary_history.txt, newer such cases are recorded in
the git logs of (now superseded) offapi/type_reference/types.rdb,
offapi/type_reference/offapi.rdb, and udkapi/type_reference/udkapi.rdb, new such
cases are recorded in the git logs of offapi/type_reference/offapi.idl and
udkapi/type_reference/udkapi.idl.
