But it seems that you really *do* need wrappers to
deal with the line endings problem, whether they're
provided automatically or you it yourself manually.

This is reminiscent of the C-string vs. Pascal-string
fiasco when Apple switched from Pascal to C as their
main application programming language. Some development
environments provided glue code that did the translation
automatically; others required you to do it yourself,
which was a huge nuisance.
