==Valid Uses?==
While generally agreed that this is bad form, the discussions above identified things like debuggers and diagnostic tools as possibly valid uses. Also, it seems to me that these techniques could be used in combination with 'monkey patching' (see [[Add_a_variable_to_a_class_instance_at_runtime]]) and other similar kinds of activities. Okay, this gets a bit out on the edge of valid but still. --[[User:Dgamey|Dgamey]] 16:51, 27 December 2011 (UTC)
