Yeah, but I've changed my mind on this -- I think it's needless added complexity that helps save one line of code in very few use cases. And you don't really think the PEP endorses
nonlocal foo += 1do you?
The PEP itself is very clear about supporting "augmented assignment", even defining the grammar differently for this case (such that you can't do it with multiple names in a single statement). The grammar shown also supports "nonlocal foo = bar = baz", though the text doesn't mention this form.
