As far as I know, Python does not support private attributes, so I guess the dicts are public no matter what I do. I suppose that I can implement "frozendict", but I can't think of any way to enforce the immutability of these "frozendicts" that would not be trivial to circumvent (it better be, in fact, otherwise I wouldn't be able to initialize the damn things).
You would initialise them by creating them from a list of tuples (or an
iterable which yields tuples), like with a dict:
>>> dict([(1, "foo"), (2, "bar")])
{1: 'foo', 2: 'bar'}
