I have a class called Signal which is a descriptor. It is a descriptor so that it can create BoundSignals, much like the way methods work. What I would like to do is to have the class be a descriptor when instantiated in what will be the locals of the class, but not a descriptor everywhere else.
Can I do this without requiring the class to use a special metaclass that does the transformation? One way I can think of which would work if there is such a thing would be a hook that type will call on the value of locals if that value is defined. That way I could just return the descriptor from that hook. The advantage of this over using a metaclass is that these are combinable.
