Comment (by vivainio):

 Would it be ok for other devs if I made this an rc options, e.g. you'd
 have to do

 ip.options.find_special_attributes = True

 (the name is up for discussion)

 to attempt finding methods with these attributes?

 The option would be disabled as a default, but I'd add it to
 ipy_user_conf.py, commented out & with explanation.
