It's a really exciting proposal. AFAIK, it'd make Python 3 the first mainstream imperative scripting language to have these async/await concepts built-in (there is a similar proposal for JavaScript/ES7 built on top of generators and promises[1]). While I've commented before about how asyncio is still a bit more nascent than I'd like, I'm really excited to see where the community takes it.
