PEP 492 - Coroutines with async and await syntax

[Stefan Behnel]

Hi!

Looks like there's a new PEP coming up which receives rather strong support:

https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0492/

It proposes new sytax constructs like

async with EXPR as VAR:
BLOCK

async for TARGET in ITER:
BLOCK

that substantially simplify asynchronous code. Here's the current
discussion thread on python-ideas:
