Marc-Andre Lemburg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment:

Actually, I was wrong: protocol 0 is the default if you don't specify
the protocol.

This set the binary flag to false, which should result in ASCII-only data.

The Unicode save routine uses the raw-unicode-escape codec, but this
only escapes non-Latin-1 characters and allows non-ASCII Latin-1
character to pass through.

Not sure what to do about this: we can't change the protocol anymore and
all higher protocol levels are binary already.

Perhaps we just need to remove the ASCII note from the documentation
altogether and only leave the "human readbable form" comment ?!
