Hi Phil,

That's wonderful news! Personally I find the type annotations to be very
useful indeed.

For your testing, PyCharm might be just the ticket:
http://blog.jetbrains.com/pycharm/2015/11/python-3-5-type-hinting-in-pycharm-5/#stub-files

I've not tested PyCharm with stub files myself, but with respect to
in-script type annotating, PyCharm is off to a pretty good start. For
instance it handles this:

self.devices = {}  # type: Dict[int, Device]

but not this, where multiple types are specified:

device, storage_space = index.data(Roles.storage)  # type: Device,
StorageSpace

Best,
Damon
