Indeed, you are right.

Ah yes, thanks for the hint !

ACK

True, but since the tests aren't performing any string operation on it, is it
really a big deal ? I can even switch the string to a byte array, if it can
prevent any mistake.

If that's ok for you, I can bring all the suggestions discussed here in a new
revision and keep your review tag.

Thanks,
