FWIW, I was looking into something similar but didn't proceed because it would break eval(repr(s)) == s as the constructor signature wants all the args in a tuple and won't accept keywords. Still, I think what you did is a nice improvement. Here's a couple more if you want to proceed down that path: 1. Have structseq subclass from PyTupleObject so that isinstance(s, tuple) returns True. This makes the object usable whenever tuples are needed. 2. Add _fields, _asdict, and _replace to match the API in collections.namedtuple(). The _fields tuple should only include the visible positional fields while _asdict() and _replace() should include all of the fields whether visible or accessible only by attribute access. Thanks for the nice work.
