So, I'm -1 on the PEP. It doesn't address the cases laid out in issue 3892. See for example http://bugs.python.org/issue3982#msg180432 .
I agree.
Then we might as well not do anything, since any attempt to advance things is met by stubborn opposition in the name of "not far enough".

So you wouldn't mind another overhaul of the PEP including a bit more functionality again? :) I really think that practicality beats purity here. (I'm not advocating free mixing bytes and str, mind you!) Georg
