[Python-Dev] thoughts on backporting wrapped to 2.7? (original) (raw)

I'm working on teaching funcsigs - the backport of inspect.signature - better handling for wrapped functions, and the key enabler to do that is capturing the wrapped function in wrapped. I'm wondering what folks thoughts are on backporting that to 2.7 - seems cleaner than monkeypatching functools.wraps, which would tend to be subject to import ordering races and general ick. I'll likely prep such a monkeypatch for folk that are stuck on older versions of 2.7 anyhow... so its not a huge win...
