The point about "Inadequate data modelling facilities" is why I wrote Maps: https://github.com/pcattori/maps . Specifically, the "Named Maps" variants provide the same interface as `namedtuple` but for different levels of immutability/mutability.

Feedback/suggestions welcome!

I use the beta version of this library all the time in my code! It was really simple and my code was cleaner, easier to read and write! (link to beta version of library: https://github.com/pcattori/namespaces ). Thanks and I am looking forward to try out Maps now!

This is really cool. NamedDict is a useful thing indeed!
