My understanding of coloring is "needs special treatment". Being special or not (containing an 'await' or not), as long as I don't need to care, I can call them either way (with 'await' or not) and each case works sensibly that's fine with me. Sensible would be something similar to: call function: business as usual await function: suspension point and runs the function until completion call awaitable: runs the awaitable until completion await awaitable: suspension point and could be suspended internally as well On 02.07.2015 00:02, Greg Ewing wrote:

I like the 'await' syntax to mark suspension points. But the 'async' coloring makes no sense to me. It is an implementation details of asyncio (IMHO).
Functions containing an "await" are going to be coloured in any case -- that's unavoidable, given that await is built on the iterator protocol. The only question is whether to have an explicit marker for it.
