Unfortunately, the library you describe wouldn't be Redux at all. Part of the core point of Redux is to separate out the act of describing some event or update that needs to occur, from the process of applying that update. That's what makes time-travel debugging possible, and it allows middleware to modify the actions that are passing through the store. In all honesty, if you want objects with methods, MobX is what you're looking for.
Not quite sure what that "single object" sentence is trying to say, but that also sorta sounds like MobX's wrapping up of components with `observe()` (which ultimately does the same kind of thing `connect` is doing, just in a rather different way).
(Also, fwiw, Redux is completely separate from the React team. Dan Abramov and Andrew Clark, the creators of Redux, _do_ work on React at Facebook now, but Redux is not a Facebook project, and Dan and Andrew are no longer active maintainers. We talk with them a lot, and they obviously have a vested interest in Redux, but it's separate.)

And thanks, appreciate the compliment.
