class set_class:
    def __init__(self, method):
        self.method = method
    def __get__(self, instance, class_):
        if instance is None:
            method = self.method
            def f(*args, **kw):
                return method(*args, **kw)
            f.im_class = class_
            f.__name__ = method.__name__
            return f
        return self.method.__get__(instance, class_)
    
class Foo:
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name
    @set_class
    def bar(self):
        print("%s says hello from bar()" % self)
    def __str__(self):
        return self.name

class Bar(Foo):
    pass

assert Foo.bar.im_class is Foo
assert Bar.bar.im_class is Bar

Foo("Fred").bar()
Foo.bar(Foo("Fred"))

Bar("Fred").bar()
Bar.bar(Bar("Fred"))

The cleaner approach is probably:

Rule('/<action>/', endpoint=(RootController, RootController.otheraction))
...
Controller, method = endpoint
controller = Controller(Request(environ))
...
method(controller)
