Quotes are a bit ugly, but why are they a problem?

That seems like a bug to me. What is the «Foos» in «Optional[Foos]»
referring to?
If it's the class attribute «Foos» then that's not a type and even if
its type is inferred that's not the same as «Optional[it's type]», or is
it?
If it's referring to the global symbol «Foos» (i.e. the class defined
later) that hasn't been defined yet, so it shouldn't work (or
alternatively, if forward references are allowed it should always work).
