I'm skeptical: - If you add getsize, why not getlastchangeddate, getowner, getpermissions? - in general, streams (which really is the interface for file-like objects) don't have the notion of "size"; only some do. - what is the purpose of the f.tell fragment? ie. why could that work when fstat doesn't?
