this scenario isn't possible:

The same as `view.tobytes() + bytes`, but without the extra copy implied by 
`view.tobytes()`.

Or I could explicitly convert the memoryview to a bytes object.  That strikes 
me as rather preferable.  However, this defeats one use of memoryview, which is 
to avoid unnecessary copying.  So it might be suitable workaround for some 
cases, but not all.
