I like the following variation even better:

	def foo() |
		classmethod |
		accepts(int, int) |
		returns(float):

Alternatively,

	def foo() | classmethod | accepts(int, int) | returns(float):

Yes, I understand that the first of these would require allowing a newline
after the | without ending the statement.  If it were up to me, I would
allow a newline to follow any operator, but if that's too radical, then
allowing newlines between the def and the following : would be fine.
