Hi Uri,

We could in theory allow Bio.SeqIO.write() etc to accept arbitrary
arguments and pass them on to the format specific code, but I'm
uneasy about this. Documenting it would be hard - I think making
you use the underlying module directly for fine control is clearer.
For now you have to use the Bio.SeqIO.FastaIO module directly if
you want to set any additional options like the line wrapping.
