Hmm, actually, you are right. Py2/Py3 *is* an issue here, because unprefixed strings in Py2 code become unicode strings in Py3. So, if we find an invalid unicode escape sequence, the string must become a plain byte string, and the parsed unicode string must be dropped. I think a Py3 incompatibility warning would be good in that case.
