This doesn't really answer your question, but with Wing IDE you can give hints to the type analyzer with assert isinstance(b, A). See here. I haven't found a way to do it with Komodo, though apparently it's possible when writing PHP or JavaScript.

Update:

I've found a way to trick Komodo into doing this:

if 0: b=A()

This works (at least on Komodo 5.2) and has no side effects, but is sure to confuse whoever reads your code.
