I was imagining something along the lines of
ClientContext({...}).wrap_socket(...)
where ClientContext.__init__ would do the validation. Or there are various other ways to slot the pieces together, but in general validation doesn't need to be done incrementally; there's going to be some place where the config dict hits the library and it can/should be validated at that point. And before that point we get all the dict niceties for free.
What are the dict niceties, exactly? I’m still not seeing what the advantage is in throwing away a typed and restricted API for a dict is. Cory
