I would like to know if there exists a 'stream' or 'file' class that is able to take a text file with a correct BOM, and an 'ouput' utf encoding. It want it to be capable of detecting the 'input' stream utf encoding by using the BOM, and do the encoding for me on the way out in the specified 'output' utf encoding.

Right now I am using std.stream.File (which I know is going the way of all the earth soon) and manually parsing the BOM myself to then choose whether I call 'readLine' or 'readLineW', and then subsequently calling 'toUTF8' after that.

It just seems like something like this would be nice to have in phobos if it's not already there.
