I think a property decorator can be useful, because you consider the simplest case with: ```python class MyClass: @my_property name = arg ``` but consider it can generate the following code: ```python class MyClass: def name(self): ...

Hmmm. I don't really like it, but worst case, you can do this with __set_name__ and mutating the target class. You wouldn't decorate it, just assign a my_property object to the name you want. Alternatively, decorate the class itself with something that does whatever changes you want. ChrisA
