[Python-ideas] Decorations

[Andrey Fedorov]

The terminology may very well be silly:

"naked" decorators don't expect parameters
"mixed" decorators should work both with parameters and without
"parametrized" decorators only work with parameters

Also consider using in functools.partial to convert your "parametrized"
> decorators.


Thanks, I'll try to incorporate that.

Cheers,
Andrey
