[Python-ideas] adding an __exec__ method to context managers?

[Bruce Leban]

It seems to me that the right way to support this kind of thing is
decorators on suites:
def sample_for():
    @parallel.for:
        for i in range(n):
            do_something(i)

def sample_sections():
    @parallel.sections:
        @parallel.section:
            do_one()
        @parallel.section:
            do_two()
        @parallel.section:
            do_three()

Now there's a lot I don't know about python internals that may make this
more/less practical. The suite decorator would of course be able to do the
same kinds of things that a function decorator can so this is not just
limited to the parallel example.
