Not extra, you just need to make sure your binary data is in the correct range of values the text device you are sending to can handle.
Does this mean that Py3k text streams will accept byte arrays in their write() methods, and that byte arrays can be concatenated with unicode strings and otherwise used in any context expecting a text string, as long as all their elements are in the ASCII range?
If that's true, then some of my objection is mitigated.
