That "only" is a big deal. Even if the generator has no explicit "finally"
clause, by "return"ing from the yield point it cannot be resumed. If ES6
generators doesn't return from the yield point under these circumstances,
and are thus resumable, I doubt we will dare make ES7 generators not
resumable under these same circumstances.
I do think it's now or never. I prefer now.
