This made me think. (I have tons of these ideas, but usually am afraid of 
voicing them unless encouraged by comments such as this one.;) How about this 
whistle: we allow round to accept str as the first argument?

In a very unrelated context 
(https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0484/#forward-references) Guido has said 
something like "when literals aren't what they seem, strings are a good enough 
substitute". Maybe here too?
