The JetBrains announcement that they want to fund the project isn't a guarantee that it'll be implemented. The feature needs to go through the normal feature acceptance process, which as Markus said, might involve a DEP.
Assuming the idea is accepted, my sense on timing would be to wait until January when Django drops support for Python 2.7 and 3.4 in master. Then we could use inline annotations rather than the stub files.
