As far as whether or not this usage fits within the guidelines at https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#function-annotations, it would definitely be worth bringing up in a python-dev thread before going ahead with it. I think it's a good dynamic use of annotations that fits within the spirit of PEP 484 without requiring sphinxcontrib-trio to rely on a static typechecker like mypy, but others may have a different perspective.
