There was discussion recently about the idea of providing
access to the frame of a suspended generator, so that
debuggers can inspect the stack of an asyncio task that's
not currently running.

The same mechanism ought to allow the state of an arbitrary
generator to be examined. You'd need to explicitly ask
for it, though -- it wouldn't appear in stack traces
automatically.
