If replace() actually supported these keywords all along, then I am happy with this proposal.
With the obvious exception of "fold", it did at least since Python 3.0 (and likely since 2.x where x is 5 ± 1.)
There are a few bug reports that may be relevant:

Thanks. These are helpful, but they don't address the case in hand where the member function defaults are taken from the other attributes.
