In principle, such a function could be added if it is not called ``isinstance``. For example, we could add a helper ``is_union(tp)`` (or maybe also ``is_generic(tp)`` etc). Such function(s) will be simple one-liners wrapping private API in a right way (e.g. using _gorg instead of __origin__ where needed etc).

Guido, what do you think?
