No, that's a stretch. People can understand and actually use 'yield
(await foo())', but they usually can't figure what  'yield (yield
foo())' actually does:

   def foo():
       yield (yield 1)

Who on this mailing list can meaningfully use the 'foo()' generator?

   async def bar():
       yield (await foo())

'bar()' is perfectly usable in an 'async for' statement and it's easy
to understand what it does if you spend an hour writing async/await
code.
