This is only compounding the errors introduced by the "make the tests 
pass" philosophy of "porting" the stdlib.  We should not make them worse.

At the moment (AFAIK) nobody has gone through the web bits of the 
stdlib and asked, "Should this work on strings, bytes, or both, and 
if both, how should that API be expressed?"
