--- Comment #13 from Dmitry Olshansky <dmitry.olsh at gmail.com> ---
Like it or not but changing `byte` to be unsigned and `sbyte` to be signed or
some such is ton of _trivial_ breakage that gives us exactly 0 benefit.
It may appease C# programmers, but I believe name of signed byte is the least
of their problems. Java has signed byte as `byte` though so not w/o precedent.
