codecs can work on any combination of types. Here's an example of
a codec that accepts str and unicode and returns str:
'313233'
>>> u'123'.encode('hex')
'313233'
>>> '313233'.decode('hex')
'123'
>>> u'313233'.decode('hex')
'123'
In 3.1 the method don't support this anymore, since they are more
strict w/r to type checking.
