Not really.  I've used it once that I can recall, to copy a kind of
generic "default value", something like:

def value(self, v, default):
    if hasattr(source, v): return getattr(source, v)
    else: return copy.copy(default)

(except not quite, there would probably be better ways to write
exactly that).

Cheers,
