[Python-ideas] Implementing string unary operators

I posted a previous thread about overloading the unary `+` operator in strings with `ord`, and that expanded to more than just the unary `+` operator. So I'm saying now, there should be these implementations:

+string - `int(string, 10)` (or just `int(string)`) -string - `int(string, 8)` ~string - `int(string, 16)`

Or:

+string - `string.lstrip()` -string - `string.rstrip()` ~string - `string.strip()`

If anyone has better ideas, they can post it here.
