Given this explanation, of course I am +1 on an explicit release() method.  But I'm still skeptical that a context manager adds much (not sure if that counts as -0 or +0 :-).

I suppose after release() is called all accesses through the memoryview object should be invalid, right?  Is this not covered by PEP 3118 at all?
