Well, it's my personal opinion, but I think we should focus on a simple
and straightforward solution for the present issue before beta3 is
released (which is in 8 days now). It has already been difficult to find
a (quasi-)consensus for a simple patch to adapt quote()/unquote() to the
realities of bytes/unicode separation in py3k: witness the length of the
present discussion.

(perhaps a sophisticated solution could still be adopted for 3.1,
especially if it has backwards compatibility in mind)
