[Python-ideas] Asynchronous friendly iterables

[Simon De Greve]

Do you mean that for loops inside an "async def" statements are always
executed as 'async for' loops? That's what I wanted to acheive by writing
the AsyncDict class (c.f. the CodeReview link).

As I said, I'm pretty new to Asyncio and thus may be missing some
immportant feature of the lib (which is apparently the case here).
