It would be new syntax for Python, so type checkers would have to
understand it.
Is there any restriction that forward class's continuation must appear in same
module?
No.

Hello,
As an initial implementation that will be improved in the future, the
specification in PEP 681 is fine. Feel free to add the decorator to
Python 3.11 at your convenience.
However, the PEP includes several worrying recommendations like:
- we recommend that the maintainers of attrs move
I don't think this proposal is a good solution for the problems of static
typing users.

Hello all,
I am very excited about a future multithreaded Python. I managed to postpone
some rewrites in the company I work for Rust/Go, precisely because of the
potential to have a Python solution in the medium term.
I was wondering. Is Sam Gross' nogil merge being seriously considered by the

Thanks Petr, that's great to hear!
I opened a PR
This seems like it would solve a huge problem that I've often faced myself,
but by introducing something that might later on cause problems I
anticipate.
Like some people suggested earlier, introducing new keyword in python is
not a good solution, I feel it just adds to the already existing bulk a

UGH!
I thought there was a general understanding that when typing was added
to Python, there would be no impact, or at least minimal impact, on
people who didn't use it. (Raises hand.)
Now we see an(other) instance of intention creep.

TL;DR
(literally, I will go back and read it now, but after reading the first
paragraphs:
_a proxy_ object yes, then dividing class creation in 2 blocks would
not break things)

So -
good idea on creating the proxy.
But would you really __need__ this badly that the
proxy object would "become" the new class object,
preserving its "id"?
Just name re-binding
(and the static type checkers _knowing_ the name
will be re-assign to the actuall class object later) seems
