One last thing, a quick & dirty solution that works today, if you don't mind 
accessing private internals of stdlib classes, and don't mind giving up the 
performance of _io for _pyio, and don't need a solution for binary files:

class MyTextIOWrapper(_pyio.TextIOWrapper):
    def readrecord(self, sep):
        readnl, self._readnl = self._readnl, sep
        try:
            return self.readline()
        finally:
            self._readnl = readnl

Or, if you prefer:

class MyTextIOWrapper(_pyio.TextIOWrapper):
    def __init__(self, *args, separator, **kwargs):
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        self._readnl = separator

For binary files, there's no solution quite as simple; you need to write your 
own readline method by copying and pasting the one from _pyio.RawIOBase, and 
the modifications to use an arbitrary separator aren't quite as trivial as they 
look at first (at least if you want multi-byte separators).
