I have searched this list and found out that Python doesn't have a
mutable string class (it had an inefficient one, but this was removed
in 3.0). Are there any libraries outside the core that offer this?
I wrote a gap buffer implementation for Python 2.5 allowing
character, unicode character and integer elements.

Its not seen much use or any maintenance so is unlikely to work with
Python 3.x.

I tried this as a learning exercise and found slicing doesn't work
correctly.
import gapbuffer
print gapbuffer.GapBuffer(range(10))[:]
GapBuffer('i')]
If my sleuthing is correct the problem is with these lines
ilow *= self->itemSize;
ihigh *= self->itemSize;
in GapBuffer_slice being computed before ilow and ihigh are compared to
anything.
