Comment(by cotto):
The approach of providing a dumb eof for FileHandle and letting users
build on top of it makes sense to me and seems preferable to trying to
dtrt while avoid unexpected costs and side-effects. I updated the
description of the relevant functions in 8c0d19cc9 so that anyone reading
them will be made aware of their potentially surprising behavior. I'll
leave this ticket open in case anyone wants to argue for a smarter fh.eof,
but if nobody responds within 2 week we can consider the matter closed.
