Comment:
In July on i18n-sig, we discussed the need for a builtin 
function like "str" but which could return any string-like
object. Guido endorsed the idea
http://www.python.org/pipermail/i18n-sig/2000-July/000338.html
but no patch has been submitted.

I know its too late to add this as a builtin for 2.0. Is it
too late to add it to the string module?

Comment:
I think we should not do this now. A feature freeze is a feature freeze. :-)

Let's see if the need really exists once 2.0 is released and then we can add it to 2.1.  I'm sure there are lots of other things that we find would be useful to add, once there's some real experience using the new Unicode stuff.
