In my opinion, I don't care what is behind the scene. If @decorator 
syntax transform
the function into a decorator, all is good.

Not any function can act as an usefull decorator, in my opinion. It 
should do something
useful around the concept of callabale object. That's why it seems for 
me more like
a syntax sugar than an algorihm construct.
