According to Wikipedia <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coroutine>, term
"coroutine" was first coined in 1958, so several generations of computer
science graduates will be familiar with the textbook definition. If your
use of "coroutine" matches the textbook definition of the term, I think you
should continue to use it instead of inventing new names which will just
confuse people new to Python.
