My hat is off to you Fabio! This is a great way to have the method
clobbering stand out. I can read this code and know EXACTLY what is
going on behind the scenes! And it also has the benefit of being very
compact as apposed to a doc-string.

class A(object):
    def method(self):
        pass

class B(A):

    @overrides(A.method)
    def method(self):
        pass

    @implements(file.write)
    def write(self):
        pass
