An overloaded form of the Readline method. So that you can jump to a line number.
myStreamReader.ReadLine(10); // read line 10

Yannick,

I agree, I also think an additional method called ReadLines(...)
would be good. With two overloads:

public string ReadLines(int numberOfLinesToRead);

That ones easy enough, but I wouldn't want to to block until it
got the lines - just return as much as it can, so I thought a
overload with the signature would be useful aswell:

public string ReadLines(int numberOfLinesToRead, bool
blockExecution);

What do you think?
