So the question is, why do you want to abstract them away into decorator-list, instead of for example creating a "PythonDeclaration" which has a "bool isAbstractMethod()"? (of course only for the decorators/attributes which are interesting to you)

Many frameworks (like SQLAlchemy, Django, ...) introduce decorators to modify methods and classes, and it would be useful to track that. As the set of decorators can change at any time (you can even define your own ones) this can not be solved by adding some enum flags to a declaration. See my previous post for a simple custom example.

Sven, this is in python now and hence this review request can be closed, or?
