OK. I guess I'll make unsigned values the default for [any2string] then, postponing the issue of name change to [any2bytes] rsp. [bytes2any] to a hypothetical future in which the "string" suffix implies unicode or other non-byte-oriented representation.
Make an alias to [any2bytes] anyway, and encourage people to make the distinction right away, so that [any2string] in the future would take care of encodings while [any2bytes] would not.
Or else, [any2string] could take an argument for the charset, maybe.
