I find that I am often writing code in the following pattern:

foo = MyContextManager(*args) for bar in my_iter: with foo: # do stuff

I think it would be much cleaner to be able to write:

for bar in my_iter with MyContextManager(*args): # do stuff

It's not clear to me whether that means

for bar in my_iter: with MyContextManager(*args): # do stuff

or

with MyContextManager(*args): for bar in my_iter: # do stuff
