1 major and 1 minor comment (you can guess which is which)

1) gsf does support line by line parsing.  There is a wrapper for
   that.  GsfInputTextLine

2) After your review of the available implementations you conclude
   by saying that the obvious solution is to start from scratch and
   implement the .Net stream interfaces.  Given the significant
   amounts of work necessary to implement the various wrappers in
   gsf I'm reticent to just toss it.  Beyond the lack of async i/o
   what keeps gsf from being a viable basis for your work ?
