The TextIOWrapper details are already specified in multiple places in the 
documentation. Should we remove all of those and write it more like:

"if *encoding*, *errors* or *universal_newlines* are specified, the streams 
will be opened in text mode using TextIOWrapper."

That way we make the class part of the interface, but not the interpretation of 
the arguments. (Currently it's a big mess of encodings and newline 
transformations.)
