+// Some details on yield IDs
+// -------------------------
+//
+// In order to assist Ignition in generating bytecode for a generator function,
+// we assign a unique number (the yield ID) to each Yield node in its AST. We
+// also annotate loops with the number of yields they contain
+// (loop->yield_count()) and the smallest ID of those (loop->first_yield_id()),
+// and we annotate the function itself with the number of yields it contains
+// (function->yield_count()).
+//
+// The way in which we choose the IDs is simply by enumerating the Yield nodes,
+// starting with 0. While Ignition does not completely depend on this particular
+// scheme, it does rely on some of its properties.
