Let's say you agree that there are use cases for accessing a header value as either the raw encoded bytes orthe decoded unicode. What should this return:message['Subject']The raw bytes or the decoded unicode?Let's make that the raw bytes by default -- we can add a parameter to Message() to specify that the default where possible is unicode for returned values, if that isn't too painful.
I don't know whether the parameter thing will work or not, but you're probably right that we need to get the bytes-everywhere API first.
