Is it possible to connect an awaitable to a Future, basically turning it into a Task?

I’m using asyncio and I’d like to add an item to an object that others
can wait on immediately and which eventually I will want to use to track a
coroutine. In other words I want something like:
class Info:
def __init__(self):
self.done_task = asyncio.Future()
info = Info()
# do other stuff, but eventually
coro = ...
asyncio.connect_future(coro, info.done_task)
I can certainly live without this, it simply requires adding an additional
task made with asyncio.ensure_future and using that to set the result of
done_task.
But it would be a lot more elegant to just have the one future (especially if
I have to cancel the wait, as I have to keep the extra task around so I can
cancel it). So...just wondering if I missed something.

Russell
