The reason why I chose "string0" is because it refers to the C++ type and
NOT the Python type.  The calldata could be a null-terminated string
("string0") or a C++ string ("string").  Both would however map to a Python
StringType, so it would seem that using a types.StringType is not the best
option.  Your thoughts?

No problem.
