Perhaps "getdescriptor" would work as the method name? Yes, it can technically return a non-descriptor, but the primary purpose is to customise the retrieval of objects that will be checked to see if they're descriptors. It won't be invoked when looking for ordinary attributes in an instance dict, but will be invoked when looking on the class object.
getdescriptor would work. The name is not 100% accurate, but a lot clearer than the other alternatives I've seen.

P.S. Sorry about the slow response, its hard to find enough time to seriously participate in the discussion.
