Rejecting this now. Comments on python-dev are mostly negative.
Note that there's also splitlines().

Comment:
Hm. s.rstrip() does the same thing (plus strips trailing whitespace, which
is rarely a problem). Do you really need this function? If so, please
don't call it chomp() -- that's a Perl-ism that makes no sense to anyone
else.
*If* (and I say *if*) this is accepted, we would require a Unicode version
and documentation as well.
