Georg Brandl <georg at python.org> added the comment:

Hmm, it may indeed be the best option to add a new directive option to say "this function does not take keyword args".  It would result in some form of unobtrusive but noticeable output in HTML.

It is a bit of an effort to add it everywhere it's necessary, but the most important instances (e.g. string methods) can be covered quickly, and it's fairly easy to grep the other instances (namely, grepping for METH_O and METH_VARARGS without METH_KEYWORDS).
