Just a quote of Georg Brandl's msg178519:
I see only one obstacle. Some functions (like dict.update()) needs several signatures. How detect and format them?

Serhiy, did you mean to mark this as "patch review"? I don't see a patch.
serhiy-storchaka commentedon Jan 3, 2013
Sorry, I mixed up the issues. For this issue I have not a patch yet. I wait for some suggestions and decisions first.

This proposal pre-dates signature objects; I wonder if they can be used to handle the use cases here.
