Yup!  Don't try to horn in on my lucrative channelling business, but
Guido has already said that's The Plan for Python 3000.  Historically,
listcomps got in before generators (let alone gencomps), and I think
Guido must have misplaced one of the time machine power cells during
his move to California.
