This is an ancient issue by now (D1), but I don't think we should change
.tupleof in any case. Typically low-level code uses .tupleof, for example it
might use it to send a data structure over the network and you wouldn't want to
lose private members in the process. :)

I think this is fair to close as wontfix.
