That's mostly available already! https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0562/ # caller.py import mod print(mod.spam) print(mod.eggs) # mod.py def __getattr__(name): return "<synthetic %r>" % name spam = "ham" rosuav@sikorsky:~/tmp$ python3 caller.py ham <synthetic 'eggs'> I don't think there's any __setattr__ support, though, so this isn't quite everything you're looking for.
