Given the history of API design errors in contextlib (cf. contextlib.nested in 
general, making contextlib._GeneratorContextManager a subclass of 
contextlib.ContextDecorator), I've realised Raymond is right in wanting to see 
this idea more thoroughly vetted before it gets added to the standard library.

Accordingly, I plan to create a 'unittest2' style backport library for 
contextlib (imaginatively named 'contextlib2') and prototype the concept 
further there.
