> universal_newlines uses the locale encoding which is a good choice in
most cases.

Well, some cases, and only really by accident. I won't hide the parameter, but it is promoted as "frequently used" and I'll make sure to document encoding before universal_newlines. Call it a very weak deprecation.

The new patch also removes the openers, which I think were solving a problem we don't have right now.
