Are you suggesting that the following code should print "43" instead of "42"?
::
>>> class C(object):
... x = property(lambda self: self._x)
... def __init__(self):
... self._x = 42
...
>>> c = C()
>>> c.__dict__['x'] = 43
>>> c.x
42
If so, this is a pretty substantial backwards incompatibility, and you
should probably post this to python-ideas first to hash things out. If
people like it there, the right target is probably Python 3000, not
Python 2.x.
