Well you might be able to if you add a bunch of named function combinators wrapping these, but definitely not with only lambdas, unless you define your combinators using `ast`, which I think would let you define statements via expressions.

That's an awful lot of effort to go to to avoid naming a function.

Well sure, you could do something like

    def apply_ctx(ctx, func, *func_args, **func_kwargs):
        with ctx as __ctx:
            func(*func_args, **func_kwargs, ctx=__ctx)

but you can't do that itself as a lambda. And I consider modifying the ast cheating :P

No disagreement, really depends whether you're a "rules" or "spirit" kind of person though.
