I requested that Jasper provide an unsafeByteString function in Blaze for Hamlet's usage: Hamlet does the UTF-8 encoding at compile time and is able to gain a little extra performance boost. If you want to properly validate bytestrings before inputing them, I believe the best approach would be to use utf8-string or text to read in the bytestrings, but Jasper may have a better approach.
