[Python-Dev] async/await in Python; v2

[Andrew Svetlov]

Greg, how waiting for multiple cocalls should look and work?

In asyncio when I need to wait for two and more coroutines/futures I
use `asyncio.gather()`:

yield from gather(coro1(a1, a2), coro2(), fut3)

>From my understanding to use cofunctions I must wrap it with costart call:

yield from gather(costart(coro1, a1, a2), costart(coro2), fut3)

That looks weird.

There are other places in asyncio API those accept coroutines or
futures as parameters, not only Task() and async().
