I know. I wasn't serious (I should have made that clear).
Please stop offering new syntax.
Do you mean on this particular issue or ever again? So you don't want any new syntax in python ever again??
This issue. It's just like the "group by" operator that was proposed months ago and rejected. Keep it simple. Additional syntax typically burdens the user with additional mental overhead. Decorators are *still* causing significant consternation among relatively new users who haven't seen them before, as have variable leakage out of for loops and list comprehensions. - Josiah
