If accessing the descriptor on the class object has no special

If I would satisfy this, I will be forced to check for None 99.9% of
the use cases (it is not None, being applied to an object). Thus it
behaves as designed.
That's not true. You can use a try-except block to return the descriptor
object when an AttributeError is raised.
Actually, never mind. I just realized the function has to be called
before the attribute can be set, which can not-only raise any exception,
but could potentially have undesired side-effects given a parameter it
doesn't expect.
