[Python-ideas] singledispatch for instance methods

[Guido van Rossum]

Maybe ask core membership if they meant you to literally just post just the
word "bump" to the list (my guess is not). Also the last time I see that
you received any advice was a long time ago and regarding to a different
issue. For this idea there's no issue and no patch (and core devs aren't
required to read python-ideas).

Please understand that in this community you are expected to do some work
yourself too -- we're not being paid to implement features proposed (or fix
bugs reported) by users, we mostly implement/fix things we care about
personally, and some of us sometimes volunteer to mentor users who show an
interest in learning. IMO posting "bump" several times does not exhibit
such interest.
