[issue2078] CSV Sniffer does not function properly on single column .csv files

[Skip Montanaro]

Skip Montanaro <skip at pobox.com> added the comment:

What do you think the delimiter should be for this csv file?

43.4e12
147483648
47483648

What about this one?

abcdef
bcdefg
cdefgh

And this?

abc8def
bcd8efg
cde8fgh

If I force the sniffer to not allow digits or letters as
delimiters I can get the sniffer to return comma as the
delimiter in all three cases.  I'm not certain that's
correct in the third case though.
