This sort of code might be better as a single expression. For example:
user = (
request.GET["user"]
.decode("utf-8")
.strip()
.lower()
)
user = orm.user.get(name=user)
LOL. And I thought I was the one with a (self-confessed) tendency to
write too slick, dense, smart-alec

Indeed. There are clear use cases for overriding +=, but it's hard to

That would be a very strange and unprecedented syntax that
munges together an attribute lookup and a call.
Keep in mind that a method call in Python is actually two
separate things:
y = x.m()
is equivalent to
f = x.m
y = f()
But it
