I see. I just added a test for this case into "almost finished" 
v2 of the patch series. There, this problem is kind of avoided by 
making sure that in mi_command_py::invoke anything from "this" 
mi_command_py object is not accessed AFTER calling the python code. 

However I agree that using shared_ptr is more robust solution.

Thanks!
