Marten H. van Kerkwijk <m...@astro.utoronto.ca> added the comment:
In astropy we are now working around the auto-closing of the underlying stream in TextIOWrapper by subclassing and overriding `__del__` to detach [1]. It would seem more elegant if `TestIOWrapper` (and really, `BufferedReader`) could gain an `closefd` argument, just like `open` has, which is `True` by default. p.s. Do let me know if it is better to open a new issue.
