This is the same Itamar who, in the talk I linked a few days ago
(http://ln-s.net/D+u) extolled buffer as a very real performance
improvement in fast python networking, and asked for broader and more
complete support for buffers, rather than their removal.

A bunch of people, myself included, want to use Python as a persistent
network server. Proper support for reading into already-allocated
memory, and non-copying strings are pretty indispensable for serious
production use.
