Did you actually need to "yield from"? Unless your caller was sending
values into the enumerate iterable, which as far as I know enumerate
doesn't support, "yield from" isn't necessary.
for t in enumerate(itertools.chain(headers, [''], body, ['']):
yield t
lines = t[0]

That gives you one more than the number of lines yielded.
