Yes. Process already has four Reader-based overloads:

  - inputReader()
  - inputReader(Charset)
  - errorReader()
  - errorReader(Charset)

We don't want to add all-lines and whole-string variations for each of these to 
Process, which would require eight new methods. There would need to be only two on 
BufferedReader, plus one could use them for reading text from other places (e.g., a 
socket).
