[issue10049] Add a "no-op" (null) context manager to contextlib

2012-02-08 Thread Alexander Jones

Not having this as a standard idiom makes it very tempting to just do 
copy-paste coding as in hniksic's example. Who likes to invent their own 
library for generic language-supporting idioms?

What about an alternative of giving NoneType empty enter and exit methods? So 
instead of a 'null' CM you can just use "with None"?
