Well I think there are only three things in practice that can happen:
fail on open, fail on read, and return junk data.

I think making the API explicit about this is a good idea because it
makes it clear to people using the API about how it can go wrong, and
because we can write test scenarios for these three cases where we use a
transport from a higher level.
