Better to continue discussion here.
Attached is my second, simpler version of the feature. A context manager is
included:
with string.StrBytesRaises():
str(b'bytes')
# raises an exception
In a normal program, you might just set the flag to True, but in a library that
has no hope of setting the -bb flag you might use it during serialization
rather than checking isinstance() on all input.
