Personally, I thought Guido's original proposal for function annotations, which included a typecheck operator that was replaceable on a per-module basis (and defaulted to a no-op), was the perfect thing -- neither too much semantics nor too-little. I'd like to have it back, please. :)

I'd be perfectly happy to go back to talking about "type annotations", rather than the more general "function annotations", especially since most of the discussion thus far has been about how to multiple things with annotations at the same time. Restricting annotations to type information would be fine by me.
