Maybe there should be a universal newlines mode defined for
output as well as input, which translates any of "\r", "\n"
or "\r\n" into the platform line ending.

Although I suspect that a string containing "\r\n" is going
to cause more problems for Python applications than this.
E.g. consider what happens when you try to split a string
on newlines.
