Yes, this sounds like a good idea! Actually, it may be possible to create an 
import hook that runs on any system, and imports any of \r, \n, \r\n files.

This would be a really nice addition to the core Python, because it would not 
only solve our problems but it would also allow you to access unix files on 
Samba partitions from a PC, PCNFS files from unix, etc etc etc.

Anyone want to pick this up?
