[Python-Dev] Call for defense of @decorators

[Edward K. Ream]

> - The @ character is used in at least two tools (Leo, IPython),
  and this is being considered as something bad, but not a show stopper;

I wonder how bad @ is, even for Leo.  Is there any consensus or opinions
about how many files will actually contain annotations?  If there aren't
many, people could change the delimiter for Leo directives from @ to @@ just
for those files :-)  Of course, Leo can't do this yet, but that's a nit...

Edward

P.S.  Oh yeah, just to make sure:  @@ won't be valid in annotations, will
it?
