Review comment:
       Oh... That's a tricky question. Let me provide some context...
   
   In general this protocols exist not so much to annotate Pandas interfaces, 
but rather to make our side more robust. Initially, I just type ignored Pandas 
and was pretty satisfied about it.
   
   However, I missed that on the way, it resulted in a situation, where ignore 
swallowed all the errors. Since Pandas-related are quite complex and it is easy 
to make a mistake I introduced this thingy.
   
   So what can be done here:
   
   - Removing protocols and going back to `type: ignore`. To be honest, I am 
not very fond of that idea, but I see why you're concerned.
   - Creating a transient package that will fill the hole we have here.
   - Trying to convince good Pandas folks to take a leap 
[here](https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/issues/28142) :)
