Sure, that would work. Or even this, if the scheduler would automatically recognize generator objects being yielded and so would run the the nested coroutine until finish:
This idea has been discussed before. I think the problem with recognizing generators as the subject of "yield" statements is that then you can't yield a generator even if you want to. The best syntax I can think of without adding a new keyword looks like this: yield from x which would be equivalent to for i in x: yield i Note that this equivalence would imply that x can be any iterable, not just a generator. For example: yield from ['Hello', 'world'] would be equivalent to yield 'Hello' yield 'world'
