Re-reading my post you referenced, is it just an example using 
typing.Any? I'm okay with that in the docs, I just didn't want to focus 
on it in the PEP. I want the PEP to only have the one reference to 
typing, for typing.ClassVar. I figure the people reading the PEP can 
extrapolate to all of the possible uses for annotations that they don't 
need to see a typing.Any example.
