Is the goal to "make it possible" or would it quickly become required
(i.e. any time you write normal, readable Python, it would break 
someone's optimizer, refactorer, linter, etc.?)

Are these annotations going to be pushed into every nook and cranny
in the standard library and wend their way into the C code?
