Hello everyone!

A very common pattern when dealing with temporary files is code like this:

     with tempfile.TemporaryDirectory() as tmpdir:
         tmp_path = tmpdir.name

         os.chmod(tmp_path)
         os.foobar(tmp_path)
         open(tmp_path).read(barquux)

Is it?

py> import tempfile
py> with tempfile.TemporaryDirectory() as tmpdir:
...     print(tmpdir, type(tmpdir))
...
/tmp/tmp2kiqzmi9 <class 'str'>
py>

Interesting...  on 3.4 and 3.5 I get:

--> import tempfile

--> tempfile.TemporaryDirectory()
<TemporaryDirectory '/tmp/tmpy32czx2v'>

--> with tempfile.TemporaryDirectory() as tmpdir:
...   tmpdir
...
'/tmp/tmpo63icqfe'

So a <TemporaryDirectory> if used directly, and a <str> if used as a context manager. I don't have a copy of 3.6 nor the future 3.7 handy, so maybe it changed there?
