Hi Alan,
I recognize that this utility function can't compensate for failings of
the underlying
stream. But I thought async close was the one common action that did
work on streams
to avoid indefinite blocking.
It would be more appropriate to say that the behavior depends on the
underlying stream
and not propagate the under specification.
