We already endure lots of pain to ensure that a weakref callback that gets executed (not all do) can't see anything that looks like trash.
Okay, so would it be possible for a generator that needs finalisation to set up a weakref callback, suitably rooted somewhere so that the callback is reachable, that references enough stuff to clean up after the generator, without referencing the generator itself?
