Wouldn't it be more natural that, at least when the pattern is a str

rather a bytes object, the re.UNICODE be implied by default?

Would there be any reason (I do not know) to replace that with an
re.ASCII flag to have the reverse effect (assuming there is not now)?
I'd be inclined to have it implied by the type of the argument - a str
argument implies re.UNICODE is set, a bytes or bytearray argument
implies it isn't. Users could still set it explicitly to have it apply
in the latter case.
Cheers,
Nick.
