As with the Accessor abstraction, the original idea was to support Path objects backed by a directory file descriptor (for use with openat() and friends). That idea was abandoned but it looks like the context manager stayed. It's certainly not useful currently. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39682> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
