The idea is generally sane.
It is a good idea. I think I would call it ":class", though.
I did ponder that, and then worried that people would confuse it with
putting a method into a certain class, which isn't what this is for...
:class is better than :type (which carries far too much baggage from
type theory, and is used heavily in parrot for other things).
Longer, but clearer would be :instanceof.
