As long as I'm refactoring these docs, I may also take a look at adding some notes about text vs binary handling, since that's still problematic as described in http://bugs.python.org/issue6135

The default behaviour is binary pipes, and setting "universal_newlines=True" switches to UTF-8 encoded text pipes, but anything else involves using binary pipes with separate encoding and decoding steps.
