|just as an example of what this could do: tanaka is adding hook into open_uri to do progress reporting of download. to make it work you have to pass a lambda that acts on progress. but with resume you could raise a ProgressException(pos) and resume, which is much cleaner.

Sounds like exception abuse for me.  You can use continuation if you
want to do something like that.
