Apparently I clipped too much.
With your proof-of-concept, one of your suggestions
was using names like
classmethod_follows()
My intent was to say:
"Whatever method does become standard -- either in C,
or through adding your code to stdlib -- I want some
way for a reader to know quickly that a function is
being decorated."
Therefore I do not want "better names" like
classmethod()
def foo():
pass
because then various decorators will have nothing in
common, except for the invisible fact that they they
share a common base class.
decorators(classmethod())
def foo():
pass
is OK, and
[classmethod()]
def foo():
pass
might be, because the "[]\n" or "decorators(...)" warn the
reader about what is happening.
