Comment:

 I gingerly, and with trepidation, would like to re-open this ticket
 because reload() would cover an important use case that did not get a
 hearing in the above discussion: that you might already have handed the
 object off to some other library, which is keeping a reference from
 somewhere deep in its data structures for use when you make a final call
 to it.  If one or more data structures that are being built already hold
 the object, then it is not reasonable to have to track down the object and
 try to swap in a new copy everywhere.  There should be a simple way to
 have the existing object's attributes update in-place.
