[Python-ideas] For-loop variable scope: simultaneous possession and ingestion of cake

[Bruce Leban]

Let me widen the scope of the discussion. I think it's a bit strange that
the with statement doesn't have a scope. That is:
           with f() as x:
               body
           # x is still defined here

Is this useful? To my thought it would make more sense if it introduced a
scope.
