I have created an initial patch such that writerow() now allows generators. I have also added a unit test to demonstrate the fix. The code now coerces iterators (and generators) to a list, then operates on the result. I would have preferred to simply iterate over the argument, however, there is a special case where the length of the argument is exactly 1. So coercing to a list makes checking the length simpler. All feedback welcome.
