In a sense, what you have is this (modulo keyword arguments):
def __init__(*args):
self, self.attr = args
which is perfectly legal, albeit weird. So it needn't actually be
magic per se, just a change in the definition of an argument name
(from NAME to whatever is legal as an assignment target).
I don't think it's particularly useful, though.
