Is this an actual class that I can import and use? If not, should it get a :noindex:?
I was going through the howto and saw an example that points to Modules/zlibmodule.c, but in the source there's no mention of CConverter.

You must subclass the CConverter class when you write custom converters. Perhaps we can point to Modules/posixmodule.c instead; there's a lot of custom converters there.

Answering your first question; you cannot import it, but you can use it. It is "magically" there when you write a [python input] block.

I'm not sure about the :noindex:, though.
