Comment:

 This seems reasonable enough, since we can use properties to make read-
 only attributes, but it will take some doing.  As described in
 http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.2/descrintro/#property, "The get
 method won't be called when the property is accessed as a class attribute
 {{{(C.x)}}} instead of as an instance attribute {{{(C().x)}}}."  This will
 remain a low-priority until I (or someone else -- '''hint, hint''')
 figures out how to appropriately "override the {{{__get__}}} operation for
 properties used as a class attribute" (in pure python code) as described
 on that page.
