Okay, if there is no further feedback, I will work on a singledispatchmethod decorator like partialmethod.
For the future perhaps, would it not be possible to tell that the passed argument is a descriptor/function and dispatch to the correct implementation, thus not needing two functions for essentially the same thing? It seems more straightforward to make the implementation a bit more complex to provide a single, simple API to users.
