Not directly a solution, but if you use 'builder' instead of
default (which
I pretty much always do) thenthe actual default logic becomes a
method.
Thanks, Matt. I had missed the 'builder' option on attributes.
Yes, builder was a fairly new addition, and honestly the docs need an
overhaul because there are lots of new features which have been
introduced which don't get their proper billing in the docs.
I like that -- it puts the initialization code where it belongs,
rather than
cluttering up the attribute definition.
I agree, anything more than trivial initializers should go in
builder, that way your subclass can have a chance at it as well.
