We're not supposed to talk about the scripting bridge details until Leopard is publicly available, but, yes, it's not just a simple hack. It's a "deep, indulgent" scheme.
And, even better, the scuttlebutt (not heard from Apple, so I'm not breaking NDA ;-) is that the Python (and maybe Ruby?) bridge will use Objective-C object management (GC, etc.), so the integration will be great there as well.
