tiny nit: that could also have a blank line after to make it obvious you're returning early.

I concur, done.

Could we maybe return '(failed to read source)' instead of "None" here? That would maybe be more descriptive, what do you think?

This code mimicks linecache.getline() which is used to render a traceback.

To be honest, I was also surprised at the first read, and I had to double check when I saw your comment :-D

with f:
all_lines = f.readlines()
# Convert from 1-based current_line_num to 0-based list offset:
return all_lines[self.current_line_num()-1]

try:
# Convert from 1-based current_line_num to 0-based list offset
return lines[lineno - 1]

return None

Same here. If we have an index error that means the file did not match. Maybe we should say this to the user?

Ditto, linecache.getline() behaves the same, and the code mimicks linecache's behaviour.
