No. Rewindability was made a hard requirement for the 1.0 spec because
there are too many apps and frameworks out there that try to rewind
rack.input.

The consensus on this mailing list was to get rid of the rewindability
requirement for the 2.0 spec and that future apps/frameworks should
just fix their code to not rely on rewindability.
