We're intentionally holding back on the places where we allow unparenthesized walrus operators.

There are some tricky issues in this particular bit of syntax -- look at this line in the grammar:
https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/bfd0c963d88f3df69489ee250655e2b8f3d235bd/Grammar/Grammar#L190

Because of that I would like to hold back on supporting this.

Is there a specific part of the docs that made you think this should be allowed?
