After a discussion on python-dev, I think this wording could be even clearer.
How about:
Special value which should be returned by the binary special methods
(e.g. :meth:`__eq__`, :meth:`__lt__`, :meth:`__add__`, :meth:`__rsub__`,
etc.) to indicate that the operation is not implemented with respect to
the other type; may be returned by the in-place binary special methods
(e.g. :meth:`__imul__`, :meth:`__iand__`, etc.) for the same purpose.
