Hi all,

Option 3: Make it legal to assign to the __dict__ attribute of a
module object, so that we can write something like

    new_module = MyModuleSubclass(...)
    new_module.__dict__ = sys.modules[__name__].__dict__
    sys.modules[__name__].__dict__ = {}     # ***
    sys.modules[__name__] = new_module


Why does MyModuleClass need to sub-class types.ModuleType?
Modules have no special behaviour, apart from the inability to write
to their __dict__ attribute, which is the very thing you don't want.

If it quacks like a module...

Cheers,
Mark.
