There are three 7-bit ASCII characters not used in Python: "@", "$", and 
"?". Please don't waste one of them for the special purpose of decorators:

    @[staticmethod]
    def fun(args):
        ...

To me "@" says "not python". I use it in templates that generate Python 
code.

-1 for "@" in decorators.
