Often types of parameters, instance variables, class variables, etc. are documented in docstrings. There are a few common ways to annotate those, like using @type (http://epydoc.sourceforge.net/manual-epytext.html), or :type: when using RestructuredText markup (http://epydoc.sourceforge.net/manual-othermarkup.html#restructuredtext)

It would be very nice if PyDev could recognise common markup of docstrings and use the type declarations for code completion.
