Terry, I have already made the point """the docs bug is #7198. This is the meaningful-exception bug."""
My review is """changing 'should' to 'must' is not very useful without a consistent interpretation of what those two words mean and without any enforcement of use of newline=''.
I was patient enough to wait 2 months for a review of my "doc patch" on #7198.
My issues are that the 3.2 docs have NOT been changed (have a look at the csv.writer paragraph: do you see the word "newline" anywhere??), #7198 has been closed without any action, and BOTH of these two issues (which have in effect been lurking about since Python 3.0.0alpha) appear to have been abandoned.
