Functions that parse arguments like  PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords() have several formatters that fill in C strings, e.g. "s".

In the C API doc:
https://docs.python.org/3.5/c-api/arg.html#c.PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords

There should be an explicit mention of whether this memory needs to be free (in this case: No) and if not, how this memory is managed (in this case: This refers to a buffer managed by the string object itself). Because of questions of encoding, it raises questions where this memory lies, and what its lifetime is (in this case: That of the owning string object from the caller).

This deserves an explicit mention, even if brief.
