One feature that I'd find nice in itertools is access to "universal
newlines" behavior. This would make it much easier to extend zipfile
and other compression-related code to provide pseudo-files that iterate
properly.
To try out a simple Python equivalent, look at:

If people think such code would be useful in itertools, I'd be happy to
add it as a patch. If not, I'll provide it as a Cookbook recipe or
some such.
