​Unfortunately, we actually need a third kind of generator semantics,
something like this:

assert cvar.value is the_value

assert cvar.value is the_value
with cvar.assign(the_value):
gen = genfunc()
next(gen)
with cvar.assign(1234567890):
try:
next(gen)
except StopIteration:
pass
Nick, Yury and I (and Nathaniel, Guido, Jim, ...?) somehow just narrowly
missed the reasons for this in discussions related to PEP 550. Perhaps
because we had mostly been looking at it from an async angle.
That's certainly a semantics that one can write down (and it's what the
very first version of PEP 550 did), but why do you say it's needed? What
are these reasons that were missed? Do you have a use case?
