'stackless' is a C extension module. This 'atomic' object would have to be written in C. Not many people use the atomic features, as indicated by the fact you're the first I have heard of in a long time. We would be more than happy to provide a context manager, if you (or anyone for that matter) provided patches to add it, given the patches were of sufficient quality.
