I was freezing a live instance of a custom .NET class and half expecting property setters to become immutable, but I can imagine that would be pretty hard to implement. I do have a related question though - I would like to provide a read-only copy of some custom .NET DTO's to a ruby script - my thinking was to inherit an adapter from DynamicObject and provide no-op implementation for all by TryGetMember - which is easy enough to do via reflection, but is there an easy way to tap into the DLR's capability of doing this in a name-mangling way - i.e. a way to implement TryGetMember that somehow re-uses what the DLR is doing behind the scenes when integrating with a native .NET object?
