How about something like below? In the same way that "self" is passed "behind the scenes" as the first argument, so can the thunk be.

with stopwatch() result dt:
    a()
    b()
print 'it took', dt, 'seconds to compute'

Something like that would be better, yes. Maybe even just

  dt = stopwatch():
    a()
    b()

Whatever keyword is used is bound to not sound right
for some usages, so it would be best if no keyword
were needed at all.
