No, it should be Generator, since you can't send() values to arbitrary
iterables; I'm specifically trying to find a way to typecheck the
objects coming in via send().

Also, the function's return value most certainly is a generator:

"""
>>> def foo(): yield 5
...
>>> f = foo()
>>> type(f)
<type 'generator'>
>>>
"""
