New submission from Tin Tvrtković <tinches...@gmail.com>:

For example, dict[int, int] cannot be used with singledispatch because 
types.GenericAlias doesn't support weak references.

I'm an author of a third party library (https://github.com/Tinche/cattrs) for 
which this functionality would be useful.

Here's a similar issue in typing (note that this issue is for 
*types*.GenericAlias) that was fixed:
