Right, that's what I'm trying to do (hence the Subject).
Turns out that ** bypasses the object methods and grovels internally
in the builtin dict. So I either need to de-Lazify the values in my
dict before I make the ** call or change the code I'm calling to
accept a dictionary (tougher since it's a large body of 3rd-party
code).
Thanks for your time!
