So why not just hide them:
>>> class md(dict):
... def __new__(cls, arg):
... return dict.__new__(cls, arg.items())
I'm not sure exactly what you mean by "grabbing sublass inst d contens
directly", but if dict(d.items()) does it, the above class should do
it as well. Of course, *other* ways of initializing a dict won't work
for this class.
