Thanks for writing this PEP.  Blessing one implementation for the stdlib
and one official backport will make programmers’ lives a bit easier :)

Does this work if the implementation function is called like the first
decorated function? (I don’t know the proper terminology) e.g.

     >>> @fun.register(int)
     ... def fun(arg, verbose=False):
     ...     if verbose:
     ...         print("Strength in numbers, eh?", end=" ")
     ...     print(arg)

The precedent is 2.6+ properties, where prop.setter mutates and returns
the property object, which then overwrites the previous name in the
class dictionary.

Actually, properties return new instances:

--> class Test(object):
...     _temp = 'fleeting'
...     @property
...     def temp(self):
...         return self._temp
...     @temp.setter
...     def new_temp(self, value):
...         self._temp = value
...

--> id(Test.temp)
30245384

--> id(Test.new_temp)
30246352

--> Test.temp is Test.new_temp
False
