No, what I mean is that if you want to send stuff
back and forth between two particular coroutines in
a symmetric way, you can write a specialised
scheduler that just handles those coroutines.

If you want to do that at the same time that other
things are going on, I think you're better off
not trying to do it using yield. Use a general
scheduler such as asyncio, and some traditional
IPC mechanism such as a queue for communication.
