Comment (by bradshawtm):

 Like the comment above, I ran into issues with `get_object_vars()` not
 populating those properties; it's easy enough to work around, but I'd
 worry about code unaware of these changes that makes assumptions based on
 a blind use of `get_object_vars()`.

 I also ran into a case in our code where we were modifying keys in the
 `allcaps` array, though that type of behavior is probably specifically
 what the change is trying to gate, so no concerns on that point.
