I prefer ".inplace_translate" to ".mtranslate", but I'm not sure about it's worth enough to add it to bytearray. In last year, I proposed adding `bytes.frombuffer()` constructor to avoid unnecessary memory copy. https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2016-October/146668.html Nick Coghlan againsted for adding methods to builtin type only for low level programming, and suggested to implement it in 3rd party library first. https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2016-October/146746.html https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2016-October/146763.html
