In fact, I feel like I would want to push in the opposite direction: don't treat one-byte bytes slices less like integers; I wish I could more easily treat n-byte sequences _more_ like integers! :). More protocols have 2-byte or 4-byte network-endian packed integers embedded in them than have individual tag bytes that I want to examine.
So are you thinking that bytes([01,56])[:2] == 120 ? Or more along the lines of a .to_int() method? ~Ethan~
