New submission from Ivan Levkivskyi:
The following code:
async def foo():
lst = [await coro(i) for i in range(10)]
return lst
gives
SyntaxError: 'await' outside async function
I understand that this is because the comprehensions are implemented using a
function scope (see also #10544), but such behavior is unintuitive.
IMO there are two possibilities here:
1) make comprehensions behave more like a for loop;
2) change the exception text to something like "SyntaxError: 'await's in
comprehensions are not supported".
I understand that the first option is probably not for 3.5 (it is beta
already), but I will be happy if the second option will be implemented in 3.5
