[Python-3000] the right way to open text files in P3K?

[Mark Summerfield]

Hi,

I was wondering if it is yet known what the right way to open text files
in P3K will be?

According to the docs the signature for open() is:

    open(filename[, mode[, bufsize]])

Is that going to stay the same and default to UTF-8 if "b" is not in the
mode (or if no mode is specified) and bytes if "b" is present?

Or will the signature change to match the one provided by codecs?

    codecs.open(filename, mode[, encoding[, errors[, buffering]]])

using the logic described above regarding mode?

Or some other way?

Thanks!
