Is the usage of dir() correct in this context or is the doc right? It would be nice to add a sentence of clarification if the use of dir() is in fact the correct way to implement inspect.
There is already a note in the inspect.getmembers documentation (http://docs.python.org/library/inspect.html#inspect.getmembers):
""" Note
getmembers() does not return metaclass attributes when the argument is a class (this behavior is inherited from the dir() function). """
In any case, open a tracker issue if you think the documentation needs to be improved or that there might be a bug.
