In my opinion, it is incorrect for a shell utility (such as sed or any
of the textutils) to respond to EPIPE for stdout (and, arguably, any
other output file) by
1) printing a message on stderr
2) exiting with non-0 status
It would be quite a nuisance to do anything else,
so the question is, is there sufficient reason to bother?
What harm results if the program does this?
