path.__enter__ could return self

[sametmax]

Could be nice to be able to to:

with path('stuff') as p:

I'm not sure I see the value in that over:

p = path('stuff')

Can you elaborate the use case?

path.__enter__ does a chdir, so I can just chdir to somewhere and get
a reference to it with a onliner:

with path('..') as p:
    print('Processing {}'.format(p.abspath()))
    subprocess.Popen('stuff here')

It's clean, it's easy to understand and write, and it won't make the
lib much fatter (it's just return self after all). For scripting and
fiddling in the shell, it's really handy.

Wow you did add that based on my monster of a comment :-) Kudos

Sorry about the format, I didn't notice.
