Personally I prefer the Delphi style sincve it makes the constructor
call explicit and adds to the documentation.

That does make it problematic... although I suppose checking the type
would
be a workaround - still, not simple or beautiful. Has this been
introduced
as a PEP?
Type checking is the problem. Until Python can distinguish methods based
on types (which introduces other issues) thisi is difficult with the
C/Java style.
We can fake the Delphi style by using a default constructor and then just
calling the "constructors" after initialisation:
class C:
def __init__(): pass
@constructor
def LoadFromFile(fname, count): ...
@constructor
def Create(valueTuple):...
c = C()
c.LoadFromFile(fn, cnt)
But its two lines not one... :-(
And so far as I know it has not been PEPd although I'm sure it has
been discussed.
