Then it came to me then perhaps it would be too automatic. So I'm
currently floating between:
- add implicit buffer protocol support to BytesIO objects
- add explicit buffer protocol support through the call of a
getbuffer() method, which would return a small intermediate object
supporting the buffer protocol on behalf of the original BytesIO
object
What do you think would be better?
getbuffer() sounds better. Accessing buffer contents is a nice feature,
but one shouldn't be able to do it by accident.
