description

We don't have a procedure `bytevector` analogous to `list`, `string`, and `vector`.  This is a proposal to add one with the obvious syntax and semantics.

When we voted bytevectors into the language in the second ballot, the version of BlobAPI said:  "Because there is no preferred way to interpret the data in a blob, there is no `blob` function analogous to `list` or `vector` and no second argument to `make-blob`."  However, we overrode the second part on the third ballot, adding a second argument to `make-bytevector`.  I propose that we now override the first part as well.
