My view is that decorator-notation should not be used for any purpose
if you would not, in pre-decorator-notation days, have considered
doing the equivalent operation.  Using a decorator for classmethod
or staticmethod seems fine, but I doubt if anyone here would
find this pattern compelling:

     def myfunc(request):
        ...
     myfunc = with_request(myfunc)

In Quixote 2, the only thing you need to do, if you like passing the
request around, is to override the _q_ methods on your Directory class.
It doesn't require any special notation.
