Bug #120082, was updated on 2000-Oct-31 14:20
Here is a current snapshot of the bug.
Project: Python
Category: Core
Status: Closed
Resolution: Wont Fix
Bug Group: Feature Request
Priority: 4
Summary: making vars() more useful
Details: It might make sense to change built-in vars() with no arguments. Instead of being equivalent to locals(), it should be equivalent to the following Python code:
d = globals().copy()
d.update(locals())

Is this a feature request (PEP 42) or a bug report?

Comment:
At Moshe's request, who apparently conferred with Barry, marked closed. A feature request for this has been added to PEP 42.

Comment:
I disagree. vars() and locals() return a dictionary that might be modified. If you implement what he says, this won't work any more. This is an ill-conceived feature request and should not be honored.
