I agree. When I was thinking about with-reader-writer, I also thought about
having with-input-output.
: with-input-output ( stream stream quot -- ) ... ;
If you pass 'f' as a stream, it uses stdio for that stream.

Those are covered by with-input-output (again, with the utf8 defaults) :
"in.txt" { "wc" } <process-stream> [ ... ] with-input-output
"www.apple.com" "http" <inet> <client> f [ ... ] with-input-output
