The documentation states it returns a "file-like object". In Python 2.5+ I expect such file-like objects to have a context manager for use with the with statement. In my particular use-case, the lack comes from urllib.addinfourl but I have not investigated what the possible types returned may be. |

You probably should bring this up again on #4972 which is being worked on. (and for the immediate future you have contextlib.closing too in case you hadn't seen it already) |

It should be documented that in 2.x series the file-like object does not support context management protocol. I have added the superseder issue number, please see the note as if you really want in 2.x, how you can have it using contextlib and in 3.x the context management protocol support is available. |
