You can already do this although only by creating a new instance.  If the .p
has

  * CSVSTRING {'quotechar': None, 'default': ""} +number

Then you can do this:

  foo.number=CSVSTRING('terminator': 'X')

This is a quite yucky though but safer.  This will also work:

  foo.number._update('terminator': 'X')

Another option to have some sort of EOL type.  On writing we could make it remove any preceding
comma.

Originally was thinking about automatically giving each item some knowledge about
where it is in the sequence.  There is probably some elegant way of doing this.
