I copied the statement about using newline= from the reader() doc to the writer() doc. All the examples I see (I'm looking at the cpython repo - that is, what will be 3.3) use the with statement and open files using newline=''. I don't think more changes are necessary. I will consult with other Python developers about merging these changes to other active branches. I simply don't understand the new Mercurial workflow well enough to do it properly.
