Anyway, names really don't matter much, so how about:
.mutable([flag]) -> integer
If called without argument, returns 1/0 depending on whether the object is mutable or not. When called with a flag argument, sets the mutable state of the object to the value indicated by flag and returns the previous flag state.
I'll bear this in mind if things progress to the point where a PEP is indicated. -- <a href="http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/">Eric S. Raymond</a>
