python: Use getattr() and setattr() instead of __dict__.
This leaves one use of __dict__ used for iterating through attributes. I could use dir() instead, but I was put off by this note in its documentation in the Python Library Reference: Because dir() is supplied primarily as a convenience for use at an interactive prompt, it tries to supply an interesting set of names more than it tries to supply a rigorously or consistently defined set of names, and its detailed behavior may change across releases. For example, metaclass attributes are not in the result list when the argument is a class. Suggested-by: Reid Price <reid@nicira.com>
