Agreed with Steven, although I do find myself a little more annoyed and bothered
by a typical init than him I guess.
Even so I didn't think the current proposals went far enough. To tilt the
balance farther, to make it easier, let's go all the way! Instead of continuing
duplication:
>>> def __init__(self, foo, bar, baz, spam, ham):
self .= foo, bar, baz, spam, ham
or
# object member assignment
self .= foo .= bar .= baz .= spam .= ham
How about?
def __init__(self, foo, bar, baz, spam, ham):
self .= *
The asterisk here used to be reminiscent of argument unpacking (minus self).
That would imply a double asterisk for keyword assignment which could be used as
well.
Also, I did find the decorator proposal intriguing, though have to say I
probably wouldn't bother to use it unless it were a builtin or I had a dozen
parameters to deal with.
