Oh, maybe I know the reason for the confusion.
I do talk about the *Perl* level, while you often talk about the
*implementation*. When I say byte or octet string below, I mean on the
Perl level. For example, on the Perl level, upgrading a string does not
change its semantics anywhere except w.r.t. to bugs and unpack: It still
stays an octet string if it was an octet string before.
(Thats of course all in line with me not wanting to expose the UTF-X
flag).
