"In the future" means "post-2.4, when we have an idea of what people
are doing with it". Right now, there's not a whole lot of use cases
for more complex expressions in the decorator area, and there's more
potential for horror. Guido made this call on a gut feeling, not on
any technical grounds. His gut is usually good on this.

God no. Please don't. Work with the syntax that's chosen, then we can
revisit this for 2.5.
