Thanks for the patches!  Here's a slight expansion of the wording on your second patch:

 Return a copy of the string S, where all characters occurring
 in the optional argument deletechars are removed, and the
 remaining characters have been mapped through the given
 translation table, which must be a string of length 256 or None.
 If the table argument is None, no translation is applied and
 the translation simply removes the characters in deletechars.

What do you think?
