I'm very in favour of the automatic conversion of QStrings into native Python strings. I always thought that multiple string types was an annoyance exclusive to C++. I'm also not convinced that performance is a compelling argument for the preservation of QString in Python.
See performance data: http://www.gotw.ca/gotw/045.htm I guess it comes down to "who is the audience." I've already got a todo item in my list to implement QString as a mapped type in PyQt 3. I'll likely end up doing same to QDate and its brethren.
