I actually initially was going to suggest a `strict` flag get added, but I figured that would be impractical. I was mostly concerned about classes that mimic file objects, because (obviously) their read methods wouldn't include a `strict` flag and you couldn't pass such objects to functions using the flag.
you couldn't pass them to functions using a new method, either. No matter how you slice it, this would be an extension to the existing file-like object "protocol" I use quotes because I don't think it's a clearly defined protocol. -CHB
