[Python-ideas] Docstrings for namedtuple

[Eli Bendersky]

This may be a good time to say that personally I always disliked

>
> 1. You have to repeat the name
> 2. You have to specify the fields in a space-separated string
>
> I wish there was an alternative of something like:
>
> @namedtuple
> class Point:
>   x = 0
>   y = 0
>

And to the point of Serhiy's original topic, with this syntax there would
be no need to invent yet another non-standard way to specify things like
docstrings.
