So, since people are confused at the number of possible options, you propose to add a new option and therefore increase the confusion? I don't understand why StringIO couldn't simply be optimized a little more, if it needs to. Or, if straightforward string concatenation really needs to be fast, then str + str should be optimized (like it used to be).
