Please do keep the original implementation around (e.g. renamed to codecs.openstream()), though, so that it's still possible to get easy-to-use access to codec StreamReader/Writers. I will add your alternative to the PEP (except if you would like to do that yourself?). If I understood correctly, you propose to: * rename codecs.open() to codecs.openstream() * change codecs.open() to reuse open() (and so io.TextIOWrapper) (and don't deprecate anything)

I added your proposal to the PEP as an "Alternative Approache".
