I'd remove autodecode tomorrow if I could wave the magic wand. The problem, 
though, as I point out to you again, is removing it will silently break a great 
deal of code.

You cannot have it be a deal-breaker both ways.

I'll also emphasize that you can avoid autodecode in your own projects by using 
.byChar. You are not forced to suffer its depredations in your own code.
