What is still unspecified (or at least not explicitely mentioned) in
the PEP is the lifetime of VAR in:
with EXPR as VAR:
BLOCK
Does VAR overwrite or shadow any previous values of VAR? I.e. will
VAR still exist after the end of the block with its value the return
value of __enter__() or will it revert to the previous value (if
any)? I'd prefer the later although interpreting the translation of
with EXPR as VAR:
BLOCK
into
abc = EXPR
exc = (None, None, None)
VAR = abc.__enter__()
try:
try:
BLOCK
except:
exc = sys.exc_info()
raise
finally:
abc.__exit__(*exc)
literally would indicate the former.
