Well, I would mind, because it's needlessly verbose
and inefficient.
I still think that c'x' is the least bad solution. As long
as we're wanting to write arrays of integers by means of
their corresponding ASCII characters, it makes sense to
be able to do that for a single integer as well.
So my current vote is:
a) Indexing bytes or buffer gives an integer
b) Have a c'x' notation for expressing a single
integer
