yeah, but to access that you need to assign the descriptor to the type
- circular loop. If you can arrange that assignment its easy:


thetype = []
class gettype:
    def __get__(self, obj, type=None):
        thetype.append((obj, type))
        return None

classIwant.query = gettype()
classIwant().query
thetype[0][1]...

but you've already gotten to classIwant there.
