+1 on the technical spec from me. The rationale needs work, but you already know that :)
For API consistency, I suggest explicitly noting that bytearray will also support the operation, generating a bytearray result. I also suggest introducing the phrase "ASCII compatible segments in binary formats" somewhere, as the intended use case for *all* the ASCII assuming methods on the bytes and bytearray types, including this new one. Cheers, Nick.
