Has anyone else ever thought that it might be useful to access a function object from within the call?
Yes:

The new magic super() uses a similar, hidden, compiler-activated hack to work properly:
class C: ... def f(): super ... C.f.__closure__ (<cell at 0x7fe2bb402e98: type object at 0x14ec5e0>,) C.f.__closure__[0].cell_contents <class '__main__.C'>
sup = super class D: ... def f(): sup ... D.f.__closure__
