Why not use:

This is exactly what the OP was expressing dissatisfaction with.
I'm -1 on the idea myself - not every combination of things needs
additional syntactic support, and doing stuff like merging an `except`
with a `wtih` is bound to introduce some weird corner case,
complicating its semantics.
I agree. If python allowed statement lambdas you could write what you
want above within the language (albeit a bit clumsily). It's very handy.
