_make_tree doesn't know if it is receiving an object or some other type;
adding features information should arguably be performed by the caller.

This will help us refactor _make_tree more gracefully in the next patch.

I believe these two lines above should be removed, as suggested
in patch 30, but let's ignore that for now.

I can't say I understand completely why moving these two lines
outside _make_tree() is useful, but if it makes the cleanup work
you did easier, I trust this is the right thing to do.  The
changes look correct.

Yup, headed there.

The basic premise is:

Why pass information you want to add to obj['features'] to a function to 
make that assignment, when you could just perform that assignment yourself?

Otherwise, _make_tree, which accepts any arbitrary object (not just 
dicts!) has to interrogate its arguments to make sure you gave it a dict 
when you give it a features argument.

Type-wise, it's cleaner to perform this transformation when we KNOW we 
have an object than it is to defer to a more abstracted function and 
assert/downcast back to more specific types.

Oh, I was not aware that obj could be not a dictionary.  In this
case, it makes lots of sense to move the magic outside the
function.
