Leon Matthews <l...@lost.co.nz> added the comment:

Some properties seem to be broken no matter if the underlying storage
system is file or StringIO.

Properties: encoding, newlines, and softspace

And the method: xreadlines()

I'm not sure what the correct behaviour should be (although I'm pretty
sure xreadlines() should just be deleted -- but when?), so I haven't
tried to patch the code.  The attached patch is a just (a beginners idea
of a) test to confirm the problem.
