I would like to be able to use a `yield from` expression in a `return`

return yield from gen

return (yield from gen)

What does this do? `return (yield …)` is the expression form, so this generator is really a coroutine, but unless I missed it your gist doesn't have a `.send` or `.throw` and you aren't using the value of StopIteration.

So I think your idea is really to create a shorthand for

```

yield from gen

return

```

Is that what you mean? or if I misunderstand please explain further.

I think this makes sense, since `yield from` can be used on the
right-hand-side of an assignment, which accepts any expression, and so
should `return`.

Here is a medium-sized real-world example of where I'm using this, where
it would be nice to allow `return yield
from`:https://gist.github.com/pxeger/48f97484364bf0b43dee974a8f0f4265
