We had a big long discussion about this on this list a while back (maybe 2
yrs ago???) please search the archives to find it. Though I'm pretty sure
that we never did come to a conclusion. I think it stared with wanting
better support ofr unicode in loadtxt and the like, and ended up delving

Hi! I'm giving a shot to issue #3184 [1], based on the observation that the
string dtype ('S') under python 3 uses byte arrays instead of unicode (the only
readable string type in python 3).
This brings two major problems:
* numpy code has to go through loops to open and read files as binary data
