Well the code isn't ugly and doesn't mess with the call stack etc.

It seems like it does, but it doesn't. The hidden_value is an instance
variable that is created every time an Attribute object is created.
>>> from Attribute import *
>>> class A:
a = Attribute("a", 5, lambda *a: True)
b = Attribute("b", 5, lambda *a: True)
>>> class B:
a = Attribute("a", 5, lambda *a: True)
b = Attribute("b", 5, lambda *a: True)
>>> a = A()
>>> b = B()
>>> a.a,a.b,b.a,b.b
(5, 5, 5, 5)
>>> a.a=1;a.b=2;b.a=3;b.b=4
>>> a.a,a.b,b.a,b.b
(1, 2, 3, 4)
