+1 since there are utilities like "decorator" and "deprecated" which belong in 
such a module, but don't fit within the "functional programming" meme 
suggested by the current name.
If we're happy with the name change, I can make sure this change goes in 
before alpha 3 (probably sooner, to make it easier for anyone interested to 
work on a patch for @decorator).
Cheers,
Nick.
