New submission from Grant Wu :
https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Lib/fileinput.py#L326 shows that
the openhook and mode are ignored when reading from stdin.
Since part of fileinput's functionality is to abstract over whether one is
reading from stdin or over a file, I think this abstraction leak should be
documented. One common use case where this might break is when attempting to
set the file encoding using the included fileinput.hook_encoded functionality.
