I think it would be useful to add a close handler, to allow closing the inner streams via the outer stream.

In libsvn_wc/adm_crawler.c there is a variant of this stream code. It writes all bytes that are read from another stream. (Search for copying_stream). It would be nice if we could combine these into one generic feature. (But currently I don't see how)
