To get function signature objects (PEP 362) moving forward I should get it into the inspect module. That way people can start using it more beyond those in PyPI (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pep362). Michael Foord has mentioned how IronPython could use function signature objects. This would be a first step in getting the objects standardized enough so that IronPython could eventually consider putting them on all of their objects.

Yes, that's the thinking as it replaces getargspec and friends with a much better API.
This may be closed as superseded by #15008, or become a new bug to deprecate getargspec with signature, or a bug for a doc-only deprecation. (Can’t add Yuri to nosy?!)
