Regardless, I believe that solving generator finalization (calling all enclosing finally blocks in the generator) is a worthwhile problem to solve. Whether that be by PEP 325, 288, 325+288, etc., that should be discussed. Whether people use it as a pseudo-block, or decide that blocks are further worthwhile, I suppose we could wait and see.
Agreed.
I agree, in fact I think that solving that issue is very important before/if ever introducing a generalized block statement because otherwise things that would naturally be expressible with for and generators will use the block construct which allow more variety and so possibly less immediate clarity just because generators are not good at resource handling.
