I must say I like this idea a lot. It seems much more in keeping with the rest of the python block structure. You could even think of decorators as bullet points. Now if only someone hadn't already found a use for '*' character...

For those of us who like code-folding editors, this option also allows them to continue folding the whole code block down to one line.

----------------------------------------------- Option B -----------------------------------------------

def f(a, b): @staticmethod @synchronized(lockvar) """ Hi, Performs a binary operation. Docstring. """ return a + b
