Maybe you didn't realize async/await don't need an event loop? Driving an 
async/await-based coroutine is just as
simple as driving a yield-from-based one (`await` does exactly the same thing 
as `yield from`).

I realize I *can*, but it seems far from straightforward.  I guess this is 
really a python-list question or something,
but what is the async/await spelling of something toy like:

    In [1]: def fib():
        ...:     a, b = 1, 1
        ...:     while True:
        ...:         yield a
        ...:         a, b = b, a+b
        ...:

    In [2]: from itertools import takewhile

    In [3]: list(takewhile(lambda x: x<200, fib()))
    Out[3]: [1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144]

Maybe the rest of the discussion should be about deprecation vs. SyntaxError in 
Python 3.7.

I vote SyntaxError, of course. :-)

Given the recent thread about the difficulty of noticing DeprecationWarnings, I 
also vote SyntaxError.

On the other hand, if we have a change in 3.7 about the visibility of DeprecationWarnings, this would make an excellent test case.
