Doesn't really matter, as we're still prolonging the lifespan of the returned object. To me the current behaviour of generators seems fine. For regular generator users this is a non-problem. For trampolines and async frameworks--so many of them have been implemented and all of them worked around this issue in one way or another. > I would have attached the returned value to the generator object, but > for some reason, generator and coroutine objects can't take > attributes. Maybe I should ask for that feature instead. You can use a WeakKeyDictionary to associate any state with a generator; that should solve your problem. We wouldn't want to add __dict__ to generators to have another way of doing that.
