Or to put it another way: If you create a tool, and you assume that tool will only be used in certain specific ways, but you fail to enforce that limitation, then your assumption will be dead wrong. The idea that there will only be a few type annotation providers who will all nicely cooperate with one another is just as naive as I was in the SysEx debacle. Are you saying that function annotations are a bad idea because we won't be able to pickle them?

Huh? What does pickling have to do with anything I said?
