The best I've come up with so far searching for information on MOPs (of the explicit, controllable sort) in those languages is sort-of/almost for Ruby and no for Python. Is there some other name they go by in those languages that I should be aware of?

In Python the actual features that implement that would be metaclasses and descriptors.
