Will jot that down as a TODO.)
Since __kwdefaults__ and __kwdefaults_extra__ are mutable dicts, there's not a lot of point trying to validate them on attribute assignment. Oh well. Would have been nicer to catch errors earlier. Not that it makes a huge difference. None is the most significant value here (it means "that's an early-bound default, even though it's Ellipsis"), and everything else currently just means "that's a late-bound default".
