New submission from Zachary Ware: In a thread on python-ideas[1], Nick mentioned the idea of ``operator.by_symbol['+=']`` which would be an alternative method of getting the operator.iadd function. The idea struck my fancy, so I implemented it (regardless of the very real possibility of being rejected anyway, judging by the current split vote in the thread :)).
I also implemented Brett's suggestion of supporting '.attribute' and '[item]' as well. Here's the (still a bit rough) patch.
