[issue27794] setattr a read-only property; the AttributeError should show the attribute that failed

[Emanuel Barry]

Emanuel Barry added the comment:

The approach I'd take would be to change how {get,set,del}attr handle AttributeError; possibly by automatically filling in the information and giving a nicer error message. This would fix this as a side-effect (somewhat; some bits of code would need to change). How does that sound to core devs?
