Perhaps it could be even simpler:

[assignment_target '=']* expr ':' suite

I don't like that so much. It looks like you're assigning the result of expr to assignment_target, and then doing something else.

This would just be an extension of the regular assignment statement.

Syntactically, yes, but semantically it's more complicated than just a "simple extension", to my mind.
