Comment (by knbk):
Specifically, `if type(s) is six.text_type` would cast a `SafeText`
instance to a plain string, so I'd say that `issubclass` is the way to go
in that case.
The problems with `json.dumps` and the like come from that fact that deep
down, on a C level, a `SimpleLazyObject` is simply not a string. I don't
believe that is something we can fix. Subclasses of `six.text_type` don't
have that problem.
