I only stepped aside so that other people would chime in.  I still don't 
think the new terminology makes anything clearer, and would rather see 
tweaks to address the one minor issue of @contextmanager producing an 
object that's also a context than a complete reworking of the 
documentation.  That was the only thing that was unclear in the a1 
terminology and docs, and it's an extremely minor point that could easily 
be addressed.

Throwing away an intuitive terminology because of a minor implementation 
issue in favor of a non-intutitive terminology that happens to be 
super-precise seems penny-wise and pound-foolish to me.
