FTR, after thinking about it, I'm not even sure BaseRequest is necessary for 
this purpose.  This seems to work too (at least it gets previously visible 
setattr/getattr stuff out of the profiling info):

class Request(WebobRequest):
     __setattr__ = object.__setattr__
     __getattr__ = object.__getattribute__
     __delattr__ = object.__delattr__
