Looks reasonable to me :) Comments:

create_transport "combines" a transport and a protocol. Is that process
reversible? that might seem like an exotic thing (and I guess it kind of
is), but I've wanted this e.g for websockets, and I guess there's a few
other cases where it could be useful :)

eof_received on protocols seems unusual. What's the rationale?

I know we disagree that callbacks (of the line_received variety) are a good
idea for blocking IO (I think we should have universal protocol
implementations), but can we agree that they're what we want for tulip? If
so, I can try to figure out a way to get them to fit together :) I'm
assuming that this means you'd like protocols and transports in this PEP?

A generic comment on yield from APIs that I'm sure has been discussed in
some e-mail I missed: is there an obvious way to know up front whether
something needs to be yielded or yield frommed? In twisted, which is what
I'm used to it's all deferreds; but here a future's yield from but sleep's
yield?

Will comment more as I keep reading I'm sure :)
