Subject: Add Byte Order Mark handling for UCS-2 and UTF-16 files
Please, add Byte Order Mark handling for UCS-2 and UTF-16 encoded files. Or autodetection BOM when present and encoding not (fully) specified? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_order_mark

Because it's not Text::CSV/Text::CSV_XS that opens a file, and BOM is certainly something irrelevant to CSV, I don't think this is our issue. You might probably want to use File::BOM or something similar, instead of CORE open, for better BOM handling. See also https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=48514 (rejected issue for Text::CSV_XS) Thanks.
