I don't think that this contextlib.ignore() thing has been discussed a
lot.

Ezio was -1 on the tracker, and Eric Smith was -0. I'd like to add my
-1 too. This is a useless addition (the traditional idiom is perfectly
obvious) and makes reading foreign code more tedious by adding
superfluous API calls.

Please consider reverting.  There is absolutely zero use case for this
that wasn't already solved by the traditional "except ...: pass" idiom.

Regards

Antoine.
