Yes, my vote would be affirmative. (do i sound official or what!)

On the Text-SIG page which should be up on python.org soon I mention
that a raft of useful tools could be collected by such a sig to aid
folks (newbies or oldbies) with text processing needs. This is 
somewhat (but not far) outside the regex rework. Other things I see
folded into a collection include report formatting tools, optimized
string concatenation, maybe interpolation tools, fuzzy match searches,
etc.
