BTW, hat is wrong with my %-proposal: Wrt our discussion: it does not just replace the choice of character; it also replaces the position where the decorators are placed. Taken on its own, it is similar to C2 and C3 in http://www.python.org/moin/PythonDecorators and as such, it shares the same problems. Feel free to add it as C4 if you care.

Yes, this is like C3 when '%' is used instead of "using" (pseudo)keyword. As for the problems, I do not agree that decorators visually mix with arguments: it is not a problem with +-s and *-s in an expression or other similar cases. Also: heavily decorated function/method probably tells that something is wrong with it's design.

BTW, IMHO, "A" case has more drawbacks than "C" cases. I also like %-syntax being used in |-syntax style (E2).

I want to hear the critics of this as I see this a better syntax to the decoration needs! Read the Wiki.

Done.
