Just to clarify, is your preference to go back to the Python 2.x way 
and use encode()/decode() for both unicode encodings and other
other transformations (uu, zlib, bz2, quopri, etc)?

FWIW, transform()/untransform() are already in the 3.2 beta.
Do you want them taken out?   If so, do you want the codecs
made accessible with encode/decode or have them continue
to be inaccessible in 3.x?
