Without the context of this thread, my immediate thought would be that
yield from x, y is some sort of chaining construct.

But I have no vested interest in arguing for this, it's just for information.

I'd also include a "roadmap" section with all 2.x wannabes that are

Actually you need Carl Meyer's agreement, not mine - he's the one writing the
PEP. But I'm in favour :-)
