Currently, inspect() is dependent on dir(). What's inspect()? I don't know of any global with that name and you are obviously not talking about the module.

My apologies. I am actually talking about the module. I meant inspect.get_members() and inspect.classify_class_attrs(), which, as near as I can tell, are the only two functions in inspect that attempt to retrieve/look at all of an object's attributes.
