I haven't followed the other thread.  Can you give an example of this?  Because 
I have a counter-example ready:  the new
Enum data type, which uses a metaclass to treat the class just like any other 
instance of a normal class:

  list(MyEnum)  # fails on a regular class

  for enum in MyEnum: # fails on a regular class

  MyEnum['EnumName']  # fails on a regular class
