Subject: Ada.Streams.Stream_IO - mode Inout_File missing?

Given that you can modify the mode of a stream_io file at any time
without changing your position in the file, would it not have made
sense to replace
Set_Mode (File, In_File);
do some reading
Set_Mode (File, Out_File);
do some writing
etc. etc. etc.
with the ability to open the file in Inout_mode? Or is there some
fundamental implementation reason that would prevent this?
