Minor nit about this idea: it makes decoding repr() style
strings harder for external tools and it could cause breakage
(e.g. if "\n" is usedby the encoding for some other purpose).

BTW, since there are a gazillion ways to encode strings into
7-bit ASCII, why not use the new codec design to add additional
output schemes for 8-bit strings ?!

Strings have an .encode() method as well...
