Not really, that's the gist of it. :)

Myself I've experienced the need for this in pytest-qt's tests, which has
lots of tests for a context manager which can raise an exception in various
scenarios, but other than that I don't recall ever needing it actually.

After all the discussion I'm also inclining to just drop the feature since
there doesn't seem to be consensus for a good API.

Cheers,
Bruno.
