Comment (by wluebbe):

 I uploaded a new branch {{{u/wluebbe/ticket/16073-2}}}.

 My goal is to replace all {{{map}}} calls with list comprehension or
 generator expressions. Currently there are still about 40
 {{{list(map(...}}} in the code (somehow my regexp did not find them :-/ )
 and a number of {{{map}}}s in the doctests. So there is still some work to
 do.

 The drawback of wrapping {{{map}}} with {{{list}}} is that in Python2 this
 is redundant.
 If a context accepts iterators then in Python2 {{{map}}} cannot exploit
 this (as it returns a list). Remapping {{{map}}} in Python2 on its
 iterator version {{{itertools.imap}}} requires extra code.

 The current branch does change list comprehensions to generator
 expressions in all possible cases. I would rather leave this refactoring
 to a new ticket since there are lots of applicable cases separate from
 16073.

 I am very much interested in feedback to {{{u/wluebbe/ticket/16073-2}}}.
