I figured I'd throw it out here for initial feedback on the theory
that it'd be higher signal to noise, and then proceed to python-ideas
if the async aficionados seemed generally in favor.

I'd like input from others, but maybe it's worth expanding the scope
to python-ideas? Not too many people read async-sig. (Or should that
be coroutine-sig? :-)

I've heard people call it an "async def" too.
I don't think it's quite as dramatic as you worry about. People also
talk about generators (not generator functions) and even though
there's a further ambiguity between the function and the type of
object it returns, we still get along.
There's also t
I've found that when talking about async/await stuff recently, I've mostly
dropped the word "coroutine" from my vocabulary and replaced it with "async
function". I'm writing to suggest that we might want to make this switch as
a community, and do it now, before the next 10x increase in the async/aw
