[snip usual rant from jmf]
It has been acknowledged as a real regression, but he keeps hijacking every
thread where strings are mentioned to harp on about it. He has shown no
inclination to attempt to *fix* the regression and is rapidly coming to be
regarded as a troll by most participants in this list.

I can not help to fix it, because it is "unfixable". It
is "unfixable", because this flexible string representation
is wrong by design.

Of course it's fixable. All you need do is write a PEP clearing stating
what is wrong with the implementation detailed in PEP393 and your own
proposed design. I'm looking forward to reading this PEP.
Note that going backwards to buggier unicode implementations that
existed in Python prior to version 3.3 is simply not an option.
