With "bytearray", the element type is considered to be "unsigned byte",
or so says PEP 3137: "The element data type is always 'B' (i.e. unsigned byte)."
Let's try:
Python 2.6.1 (r261:67517, Dec 4 2008, 16:51:00) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on
win32
>>> xx = b'x'
>>> repr(xx)
"'x'"
>>> repr(xx[0])
"'x'"
>>> repr(xx[0][0])
"'x'"
>>>
But that's not what "repr" indicates. The bytearray element is apparently
being promoted to "bytes" as soon as it comes out of the array.
