I don't work with bytes much, so I won't comment on the proposal itself. But as somebody who works a lot in email, where ASCII vs. everything else is a really important distinction, that looks like 'ASCII string "\x00\x01\x02abcÿ"' to me (despite the binary notations). So I'd prefer a different prefix.
