Uncharacteristically, I don't have a strong opinion. I still prefer 
Python's declarative decorators to Prothon's procedural initialization 
blocks -- in terms of syntax. But I don't care much one way or the other 
about the "@" sign. I have a slight preference for the newer "|" symbol 
that was suggested over the last couple of days.
