Well Alex, you are talking about Python and you are right. But Max M. is talking
about Zope, and he also is right. There is a serious problem in introspecting
Zope. Everything is a wrapper around something and usual Python introspection
facilities give you no useful information. Zope (I am talking about Zope 2) is 
the most unpythonic framework I have ever seen :-(
