Hi Stu - yes functools is in my normal template for decorators too actually and gets round the problem entirely…
I think the reason I’ve suggested a couple of “in your face” Feature Requests recently is that for me they fall into the category of “I don’t know what I don’t know” for newcomers. I think some questions like restricting server functions to user groups, or setting up Git synchronisation back to Anvil are likely to apply to so many users, that if Anvil can do it in a simple (but non-guessable) way, it’s worth maybe shouting it from the rooftops rather than leave it to the user to diligently search through the Forums and hopefully find, understand, and/or choose from amongst the solutions(s) they find there.
Your suggestion of adding to the docs may be the most appropriate thing and would would give a user a better chance of stumbling on it and having that positive “Aha! Didn’t know you could do that so easily” moment
