But you have observed that you cannot do everything with a code substitution: a function call does not only depend on the code but also on other properties of the function object: e.g. the parameter processing.
Yep, that's because Python is very flexible and provides means for changing even that. So, it's not part of the __code__ object but part of the actual function. That's okay.
You might be able to change them in a similar way as "__code__" (i.e. direct modification). Otherwise, you would need to construct a new "function object" -- and lose the possibility to completely change the function object in place.
Exactly. Except __globals__ we are all set and I think that'll work for us. I will report once we've implemented it that way.
