Please cc me into any messages you write replying to my checkins. It is 
only by chance that I noticed your question in the pipermail checkins 
list logs.


I define an ascii string as being a Python str object composed only of 
characters with codes in the range 0 to 127.

The code that implements the interface could be changed to strictly 
check that str instances fit the specification. A unit test could test 
this. Add a task to the Collector if you think it is important :-)
