Depends on the new spec which I haven't thought about yet but most likely I'll say it's still necessary for simplicity. We can make `await_transform` and `operator co_await` propagate the safe elide context. Just having the awaiter type attributed, and asserting that a prvalue of the awaiter returned from operator co_await must satisfy the requirements *may* do the work. I haven't thought it through.
