Just to throw more oil on the fire, note that this looks quite a lot like
for v in e:
S
For example, it is quite messy but you can already define 'newproperty' to let
you do the following in 2.2:
class X:
for count in newproperty:
def get(self):
return self._count
def set(self, value):
self._count = value
Similarily you can "almost" already write the following for locks:
for _ in acquired(lock):
...
i.e. you can define acquired() so that the loop is done exactly once, and the
lock released at the end. It doesn't really work because you there is no
place in acquired() you can put the try:...finally:.
Just-drawing-parallels'ly yours,
Armin.
