Oh, really?
I think checking header is enough for all ready unicode.
For example, this is _PyUnicode_EqualToASCIIString implementation:
if (PyUnicode_READY(unicode) == -1) {
/* Memory error or bad data */
PyErr_Clear();
return non_ready_unicode_equal_to_ascii_string(unicode, str);
}
if (!PyUnicode_IS_ASCII(unicode))
return 0;
And I think str.isascii() can be implemented as:
if (PyUnicode_READY(unicode) == -1) {
return NULL;
}
if (PyUnicode_IS_ASCII(unicode)) {
Py_RETURN_TRUE;
}
else {
Py_RETURN_FALSE;
}
