Documenting this sounds good. I added the below paragraph to stackless.html:

When a coroutine is garbage-collected, it gets the ``.kill()`` method sent to
it. This happens at the point the next ``.switch`` method is called, so the
target coroutine of this call will be executed only after the ``.kill`` has
finished.

sounds good?
