It's not as clean as actually supporting @property, but it could be done without the "bootstrap problem" of trying to have a module contain the class that it's to be an instance of. All you have to do is define __getattr__ as a regular top-level function, and it'll get called. You can then dispatch to property functions if you wish (eg """return globals()['_property_'+name]()"""), or just put all the code straight into __getattr__.
Or you could have ModuleType.__getattr(ibute?)__ search through some object other than the module itself for descriptors.

Not for a module, but for a *package*, this was reasonably easy (well, at least after figuring out how ;-) to do in pre-3.5 Python: One would import a submodule in __init__.py and then, within that submodule, reconstruct the package using a subclass of ModuleType and replace the original package in sys.modules. -Koos
