Javascript style dot notation for dictionary keys unpythonic?

Question

I\'ve started to use constructs like these:

class DictObj(object):
    def __init__(self):
        self.d = {}
    def __getattr__(self, m):
        return s         


        

Answer 1

It's not bad if it serves your purpose. "Practicality beats purity".

I saw such approach elserwhere (eg. in Paver), so this can be considered common need (or desire).
