Atm there's a little known piece of AST magic in Chameleon (affecting all implementations): it makes attribute-access (__getattr__) fall back to dictionary acces (__getitem__).
So that's magic; it was invented in the very early stages of the compiler and never really evaluated upon––I've later come to think it's a sick feature, because why should Python in templates behave differently than in code? As you can imagine, it's expensive, too, because all attribute lookups carry the cost of a function call. So unless there are big complaints, I suggest we just pull it out, before anyone notices. \malthe _______________________________________________ Repoze-dev mailing list Repoze-dev@lists.repoze.org http://lists.repoze.org/listinfo/repoze-dev
