For consistency I would suggest this, but Python already does this!

Foo = type('Foo', (object, ), {'bar': lambda self, bar: bar})

I've created a new class and then binded it to name afterwards. If you
can import modules without special syntax and you can create classes
without special syntax, why should functions be treated any
differently?
