I realize the notation is important also, especially if you are typing in a
dictionary constant and need a tuple key.   If we have the notation, then we
might as well have the type.  Would making the Bytes object individually
immutable for use as a key be an unecessary complication for just one type?

I guess I'll add another mutable bytes type.  What a pain.
