I added "with", although I havn't seen it. Guido's reserving "with" for this purpose in some future Python: with x.y: .z = spam # set x.y.z = spam print .q.r # print x.y.q.r

Except that the only extant PEP involving with actually uses it for something else :-)

I think talking about what Guido is or isn't doing is a bit ... wrong?
