Description

It would be nice if there was a constructor TranscodingStream{C,S}(predicate ...) which allows for the do-syntax, like such:

matrix = GzipDecompressorStream(open(path))
    # stuff
    return matrix
end

We have that for most Julia IO as far as I know.

Research direction

Start by inspecting the TranscodingStream constructor and the existing stream constructors that support Julia's do-syntax. Confirm how the proposed TranscodingStream{C,S}(predicate ...) form should behave with the GzipDecompressorStream example, then verify that the new constructor supports the intended scoped usage.
