Regardless of what I or others may have said before, I am not currently a fan of adding transform() to either str or bytes.
Just to clarify, is your preference to go back to the Python 2.x way and use encode()/decode() for both unicode encodings and other other transformations (uu, zlib, bz2, quopri, etc)?
FWIW, transform()/untransform() are already in the 3.2 beta. Do you want them taken out? If so, do you want the codecs made accessible with encode/decode or have them continue to be inaccessible in 3.x?
