I've noticed (via my friend Taylor Carpenter) that IO#reopen
doesn't work for a StringIO object.
Should it?
I haven't dug into the source yet, but my guess is that it would
be easy to implement...

StringIO is not actually an IO object; it just mimics one. Unless
reopen worked with non-descriptor IO-like objects (as in JRuby), it
would not be possible to IO#reopen against a StringIO.

By "Should it?" I mean "in the future" -- I'm not implying there's
a bug now.
That is, I'm aware of how it works now. I'm just questioning whether
it is worth changing.
I believe it should be possible in theory to make it work -- though
as I said, I haven't dig into the source.
