Nick Coghlan added the comment:

The problem I see with proxy objects for functions/coroutines/generators is 
that it *doesn't* match how locals() currently behaves in the absence of a 
tracing function - that gives you a "single shared snapshot" behaviour, where 
writes to the result of locals() *don't* affect the original namespace.

I agree that replacing frame.f_locals with a write-through proxy would be a 
good way to get rid of PyFrame_LocalsToFast, though (and thus fix the bug this 
issue covers).

The point where we disagree is that I think we should replace the 
tracing-or-not distinction with a locals()-or-frame.f_locals distinction, not 
get rid of the distinction entirely.
