Description
the same way we now have TypedDict, it would be nice to have typed SimpleNamespace with equivalent semantics, so that nested structures can be easily checked. eg
class MySubType(TypedSimpleNamespace):
bar: int
class MyType(TypedSimpleNamespace):
foo: MySubType
# correct
a: MyType = SimpleNamespace(foo=SimpleNamespace(bar=1))
# incorrect, `bar` should be a number
a: MyType = SimpleNamespace(foo=SimpleNamespace(bar='abc'))
