Although I haven't done much about it. The problem is that it needs to return a new class, not just inject methods into the existing class you defined.

That's the current alternative, but namedtuples (unlike dataclasses) are 
slotted, which makes them more space-efficient and (slightly) faster.
When I use @dataclass(frozen=True), I manually add a __slots__ attribute. I 
presume this makes the resulting objects similar in size to NamedTuples, but I 
haven't done any measurements (and not sure how to measure this anyway).

I wonder: is it possible for @dataclass to have an option slots=True?
And perhaps frozen=True should imply slots=True (would this cause any backwards 
compatibility problems?).
