I tend to agree with you on EPIPE, but OTOH this is as bad as it can be.
 Can't we find an agreement?  Is it possible to implement the "tee
--ignore-sigpipe" as you did (delaying SIGPIPE until the last input
closes, which I also think is the right thing to do) while having
close-stream ignore EPIPE?
