Bump. Just ran into this again, it is really bothering me that I can't rely on Generators to
work correctly. Can you please fix this?

Sorry, I missed the different behavior for the two yield froms... something is definitely broken
here.

As far as I know calling Generator::rewind() is alright until next() is called for the first time.
Which means that your argument whether or not should yield from call rewind() is not relevant here -
the result would be the same regardless.

Of course it should. I didn't call next() so the first value was not yet "consumed".
Also as you can see in the example the behaviour is inconsistent between the first and second yield
from. That's definitely not correct.

The correct behavior here depends on whether "yield from" is supposed to iterate from the
current position of the generator, or from the start (and throw if we're not at the start). To
make this more obvious, replace valid() with current() -- should the yield from repeat the value you
already fetched?
Generally I would agree that it should iterate from the start, in particular because this is what
yield from does for non-generator Iterators.

Description:
------------
See the example script. The inner $function generator is called twice so two zeros should be yielded
from $wrapper. Yet only one is yielded if I call valid() on the Generator before using yield from.

Expected result:

Actual result:
--------------
0
