I think this is not "permissive". This is a special hack only for django-celery.
AFAIK, its repr format is not standard. Please tell me if the format is commonly used.

If you mean sphinx should support non-standard repr format, we need to discuss how to support it.
At least, it should be more extensible way.

As I commented above, this is not good to merge.
If you have comment, please post it to #3722
