For some time now, there's an alternate ast implementation https://github.com/python/typed_ast that carries PEP 484 type comments with the AST as attributes of certain nodes. Their approach is described here: https://github.com/python/typed_ast/blob/master/typed_ast/ast3.py#L5 If type comments become mainstream in Python, could this approach maybe be adopted as official Python AST at some point?
