It turns out arrays support list slice operations and
string operations:

p = array('B','potato')
p[2:2]=array('B','banana')  # works!  insert banana
re.search('ta',p).span()    # also works!

I wouldn't have guessed from the docs for the array
module that the slice and regexp operations were
supported.  If they're "officially" supposed to work,
the doc should be say so.
