[UI] Streams - a beginning

[Bill Schwab]

Damien,

I am far more interested in compatibility with VW and Dolphin (which
tends to follow VW in such areas) than with strict ANSI compatibility. 
In the case of exhaustion, it sure seemed to me that ANSI did not
specify an error - I am convinced that Dolphin and VW have it right.

I will take a long look at Nile.  Thanks!

Bill

It still does not raise any exception because this is what ANSI says
IIRC. But I don't really care about ANSI anymore so if you want to
change the behavior of Nile please do and commit to the main
repository. Nile is designed to be easily changeable and extendable.
