Today I have spent a while to hunt down a couple of bugs in my application,
because "hasattr" was catching the exceptions.
I see there was a patch (#504714, three years ago) that addressed this, but
it was rejected because much code would get broken.
But, is it going to be considered for sometime in the future? 3.0 maybe?
And, would it really break so much code? Wouldn't it instead bring to the
day light many bugs that are already there (but failing in a more silent
way)?
Thanks,
