Larry said that the name that follows `continue class` is an expression,
so that something like this is allowed:
import mymodule
continue class mymodule.X:
def method(self):
pass
so yes, you can continue classes in other modules. He said that could be
used as a very primitive form of separation of interface and
implementation, by putting the `forward class` in one module and the
`continue` in another.
