oripel:
Maybe this is a silly suggestion, the docstring is already overloaded,
but it may be used for this too:
def foo():
"""
...
...
@ATTR name="Xander"
@ATTR age=10
@ATTR hobby="knitting"
"""
...
(Or somethins similar without the @). Later you can retrive the
attributes from the docstring, for example using a verbose RE like:
r"\s* @ATTR \s+ (\w*) \s* = \s* (.*)"
And you use it to create a dict of attributes.
The decorators you apply to foo() must keep its docstring too.
