R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment: Well, if the stream isn't seekable then I don't see how it can be left in any state other than the same one it leaves a file (read ahead as much as it read to generate the error). So unfortunately by our backward compatibility rules I still think this will be a new feature.
