Before writing a patch that may be rejected, can you explain in detail what change you propose? Example(s) will be good.

For example:

py> from operator import attrgetter
py> f = attrgetter('keys')
py> f({})
<built-in method keys of dict object at 0xb7c47ecc>

I don't see a tuple here, so what (if anything) are you planning to change?


How about the example from help(attrgetter)?

 |  After h = attrgetter('name.first', 'name.last'), the call h(r) returns
 |  (r.name.first, r.name.last).
