Fantastic idea. If **kwargs where ordered it would finally be possible
to create a good (non-hackish!) attribute tuple:
col = attrtuple(r = 255, g = 0, b = 128)
r, g, b = col
Or define XML elements nicely:
el = make_el('input', type = 'text', class = 'query')
Or interface easier with tabular, order-dependent data.
