I am finding that it would be useful to be able to define a dataclass that is

As I am typing this, I realize that I could presumably write some code to 
implement what I'm asking for. Maybe it is a good enough idea to make part of 
the standard API in any case though? I'm thinking that a field would be made 
abstract by passing `abstract=True` as an argument to `dataclasses.field()`.

You're better off discussing this on discuss.python.org as this mailing list is basically dead.

And when you do post over there, please provide an example. It's not clear what would happen in the generated code if abstract=True.
