We now have a useful function signature abstraction in 3.3 with PEP 362. An outgrowth of this has been Larry Hasting's efforts on Argument Clinic. One open question is (was?) how to give a docstring to the C versions of __new__ and __init__.
In case anyone else doesn't follow python-dev and was wondering what Argument Clinic was: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2012-December/122920.html
How funny. I hadn't noticed that all the discussions on Argument Clinic have taken place on python-dev. Thanks for pointing that out, Chris. You can also check out PEPs 436 and 437 [1][2]. -eric [1] http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0436/ [2] http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0437/
