given a normal (dict-based)

I'll grant that it doesn't work for some objects (like named tuples),
Why not? Seems like it could, with a tweak to vars ...
named tuples already have a method to return a dict.
vars already has a special case to act like locals.
So why not add a special case to allow vars to work on named tuples?
