    eww.ioproxy
    ~~~~~~~~~~~

    We replace ``sys.std[in, out, err]`` with instances of ``IOProxy``.
    ``IOProxy`` provides a thread-local proxy to whatever we want to use
    for IO.

    It is worth mentioning that this is *not* a perfect proxy.  Specifically,
    it doesn't proxy any magic methods.  There are lots of ways to fix that,
    but so far it hasn't been needed.

    If you want to make modification to sys.std[in, out, err], any changes you
    make prior to calling embed will be respected and handled correctly.  If
    you change the IO files after calling embed, everything will break.  Ooof.

    Fortunately, that's a rare use case.  In the event you want to though, you
    can use the register() and unregister() public APIs.  Check out the
    :ref:`troubleshooting` page for more information.
