Comment:

 The current behavior is rather arbitrary and inconsistent. We should
 decide what is the most reasonable thing to be happening here, maybe
 strings should default to "|S8" to give a little bit of room, or maybe
 "|S0" should be accepted everywhere in a consistent manner. Chuck likes
 the "|S0" approach.
