Unresolved bindings,possibly like
 >>> _rdf_type
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
NameError: name '_rdf_type' is not defined

In the previous example I'd like to see an answer like
'<rdf:type>'

even if I never defined it.Is this not possible?I use __getattr__ in 
other situations,and it's very useful for proxying procedures,I was 
hoping on a real objectivation of a module.
Why the language should not consider a module as a 'normal' instance 
with 'normal' attributes?
