Ah indeed, this is poorly handled.

I’m not really sure how to address it.  I/O ports are a nice abstraction
as it allows you to transparently read “streams” from any medium, but as
always, that also comes with opacity where the call site is not supposed
to know what kind of exceptions might be thrown deep down.

Thoughts?
