Summary: IOBaseError

Initial Comment:
Maybe there should be a common base Exception class
"IOBaseError" for :   EnvironmentError(IOError,
OSError),  EOFError, socket.error, socket.sslerror,
ftplib.all_errors, etc.  

Nice as it and not all IO sublibs have to be imported
to catch such errors.

See a recent need in patch #1481032 . I have this need
very often in mixed IO apps and am forced to except
naked (and being exposed to pythonic AttribError's etc. )
