I don't think there's any real plan to change the API.

I don't see a good reason to change the current behavior here. I
think it's less surprising for file descriptors to be blocking by
default. And if you really want them to be nonblocking, it just takes
one call to fcntl(fd, F_SETFL, O_NONBLOCK) (which is what the library
would have to do anyway).
