Hmm, some clues:

So it has been proposed many times but never connected...
According to last ref, it would break some code.
I guess because such code is catching wide
     [...] on: Error do: [...]

So a simple solution would be to change EndOfStream superclass from 
Error to Notification.

Any echo to this proposition?
