Summary: add type defintion support

Initial Comment:
Hi,

I'm used to java language.
When i use a good java ide, the autocompletion is very effective (python cannot 
be such effective).
ex, if i enter following text:
  Date lDate=new Date();
  lDate.[TAB_KEY]
then the editor can display all the methods available for my 'lDate' object; it 
can because it knows the object's type.
This is very convenient and allows to use a new API without browsing the API 
documentation !


I think such autocompletion could be achieved in python simply: it only need a 
"type definition" syntax.
Of course, the type definition should NOT be MANDATORY !

So, is this a good idea ?

David

If what you're suggesting is static typing, please go to the python-ideas
mailing list and discuss it there. Changes of a scope that large shouldn't
be discussed in a issue tracker.
