Thinking about this, what is the key difference with the existing PyModule_GetState() function? Is it just the return type (module-defined void * vs. a regular dict)? Certainly it provides a C-only namespace that all extensions can share (like PyThreadState_Get() does), but I'm not sure that's desirable. Anyway, I'd rather not add PyInterpreterState_GetDict() if it is essentially equivalent to PyModule_GetState().
