Personally, I think that this functionality should be built into Python's 
readlines. That's where a typical person would expect it to be, and this is 
something that is supported by most other scripting language I've used. E.g., 
awk has the RS variable which lets you set the "input record separator", which 
defaults to newline. And as I previously pointed out, xargs and find provide 
the option to use null as their line separator.
