I will try and cook up a patch / proposal.

However I have a dreaded insight; for our use case of using a while loop: you 
asked how often people need to do a try / catch inside the while loop - in my 
experience I end up doing it all the time (perhaps my data is of poor quality; 
or perhaps I am just being too careful). 
If we are doing this in a single try/catch/finally block - there is no 
difference in the number of lines of code (and thus usability of the library) 
if using a checked exception.

Yeah not interested; creating the iterator() is where we are most likely to 
have a real IOException.
