Opening a gzip file in python Apache Beam

Question

Is it currently possible to read from a gzip file in python using Apache Beam? My pipeline pulls gzip files from gcs using this line of code:

beam.io.Read(beam.io.TextFileSource('gs://bucket/file.gz', compression_type='GZIP')) 

But I get this error:

UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode byte 0x8b in position 1: invalid start byte

We noticed in the source code of the python bundle that the compressed files are apparently processed when written to the shell. https://github.com/apache/incubator-beam/blob/python-sdk/sdks/python/apache_beam/io/fileio.py#L445

    # You can even limit the character bit here. (I did 9 to grab the file format)
    data = self._file.read()
    # Now you can either yield the whole file as a single data entry
    # and run a ParDo to split it, or you can iterate in here and 
    # yield each row. I chose the latter, but I'm showing an example 
    # of the former.
