I still feel that the helper function (or class) is subordinate, and
should be indented.  Thinking of "in ..." as a decorator helps, but
makes it seem that the helper function is the important part (which it
sometimes is...)

I understand that adding a colon and indent has its own problems, but
... I'm not certain this is better, and I am certain that the desire
for indentation is strong enough to at least justify discussion in the
PEP.
