On a similar line of thinking  - if we do indeed need some syntax. And
the vote seems to assume we do, or at least accepts Anthony as
speaking with some authority (I hope he hasn't overstepped) by
declaring that not having some syntax in 2.4 is not an option.

And finding @before def is in-your-face odd.

Nobody would confuse it with real Python ;)
