This possibility was discussed on the py-dev list about a year or so ago. The twice monthly summaries should include this topic. As I remember, the reason for limiting to functions included: 1. classes have metaclasses, functions don't have metafunctions. No one gave an example for classes not handled at least as well with a metaclass. 2. certain applications require long-function_names_like_this, for which triple typing is substantially annoying and error-prone.
