It is not implemented in Python 2.4. From what I understand, making it
happen in Python 2.5 would not be terribly difficult. The question is
about a "compelling use case". Is there a use where this syntax is
significantly better, easier, etc., than an equivalent metaclass?
Would
people use the above syntax if it were available?
What would you use the above syntax to do?
Well, I can imagine using
@meta(MyMetaClass)
class MyClass(...):
...
instead of
class MyClass(...):
__metaclass__ = MyMetaClass

Somehow, it seems more aesthetic to me.
