[issue13793] hasattr, delattr, getattr fail with unnormalized names

[Jim Jewett]

Jim Jewett <jimjjewett at gmail.com> added the comment:

Why is normalization in getattr unacceptable?  I won't pretend to *like* it, but the difference between two canonically equal strings really is (by definition) just a representational issue.

Would it be OK to normalize in object's own implementation, so that custom classes could avoid the normalization, but it would happen by default?
