Hello list

This API would be very useful. (I’m using Python right know to filter 
hundreds of spreadsheets records. Loving it.)

Suggestions:
1) Name the argument “converters” (it’s an iterable);
2) Make it a positional argument.

Related wish: Add an argument for a row factory. Default would be list, 
and use cases include using tuple, a named tuple class, or any custom 
callable.

Adding converters and rowfactory would remove the need for looping over 
CSV reader objects and manually using row and cell converters.

Cheers
