+1, although adding this for 3.2 would need an exception to the 
moratorium approved (since it is adding new methods for builtin types).

Adding the same-type codecs back even without the helper methods should 
be fine though (less useful without the helper methods, obviously, but 
still valid).

Cheers,
Nick.
