In essence, you are proposing to reserve a new keyword. Solutions creating new keywords have been ruled out because they might break existing code.
Perhaps this could be addressed by requiring "from future import decorators", for one release, just like was done for "yield". I expect that this would be acceptable to the ObjC folks, too. It wouldn't be my favorite, but I won't rule it out just because of the new keyword (and yes, this is a softening of my position on new keywords).
