Thanks for that. I agree it's a shame we missed the 3.4 feature deadline
(as I would also like to see full C level signature support done and
dusted), but once 3.4 is out the door we can hopefully resurrect PEP 457 as
a direct successor to the original PEP 362, and update the inspect module
to also handle these quirkier variants. Perhaps we can even add that public
API for building Signature objects from string definitions, since that has
proved quite handy internally :)

Cheers,
Nick.
