I suggest just to deprecate this feature. I'm not suggesting to remove it in the foreseeable future (at least before 4.0). > Practicability beats purity. I don't think this argument applies here. Two things make the deprecation more painless than usual: 1. This feature has never been documented. 2. PyObject_DelAttr() exists from the start (from the time of adding Generic Abstract Object Interface). You have enough time to update your projects, and you can update them uniformly for all versions. And may be you will found few weird bugs related to misuse of Set* API. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
