@jayvdb on GitHub and I are working on a new version of one of my packages,
stdio-mgr (https://github.com/bskinn/stdio-mgr), with a dramatically expanded
API and capabilities.
Context managers feature heavily in the planned design; part of the design plan
is to allow instantiation of a StdioManager object prior to entering a context,
so that the user can tweak settings on the resulting object beforehand:
> cm = StdioManager()
cm.setting = True
cm.other_setting = False
with cm:
{do stuff with stdio managed}
If this paradigm holds, we will *specifically* be exploiting the distinction
between __init__ and __enter__.
-42 to abolishing __enter__.
