He's asking for an async version of the 'iter' builtin, presumably
something like:
async def aiter(async_callable, sentinel):
while True:
value = await async_callable()
if value == sentinel:
break
yield value
-n

Ah, sorry, I misunderstood.
I'm surprised this doesn't exist already -- it seems like an
obvious thing to have along with the other async features.
