I don't have any wisdom on the metaclass/decorator stuff, but what
about slightly reformulating the interface?  Instead of having the
programmer type, eg:

    @GET
    def foo(self): pass

    @POST
    def foo(self): pass

have them type:

    def GET_foo(self): pass
    def POST_foo(self): pass

It's even one less character of typing (the <cr> :)
