If you have some way of referring to the instance in the main body of
the code, why not just give it a name of your own choosing that you can
use in the exec command?

e.g.

instance = get_the_relevant_instance ()

exec ("do_something (%s)" % 'instance')

> >>> from shadow import * #IMPORTANT for me

Just out of curiosity, how come?
