Prob with that kind of thing is that there's a very limited number of
them, and the closer you get to running out, the weirder and more
obscure they get... :-)
It's a little tricky, since docstrings also serve as documentation in
the source file they occur in, so you don't want notation that's _too_
verbose, but personally I think @var is reasonable enough, and
docstrings are much more often viewed in *Help*.
