Hi, Why is a ForbiddenAttribute also an AttributeError? Is this intended to avoid 'information leaks'?
We found a nasty side-effect together with getattr and annotations: a user that didn't have read-access to __annotations__ would end up trying to create the annotations container again and again because getattr(obj '__annotations__', None) would return None instead of propagating the ForbiddenAttribute exception.
