I lived in China for a year. It was drummed into you not to sign anything written in Mandarin without getting a native Chinese speaker to check it over.
Sure if you know what the hex/Mandarin/Tamil/Thai says sign it. If you don't, don't.
I don't think I am being radical here, it's just common sense.
I see we agree I just don't understand why you mention hex: "don't sign what you don't understand" is just common sense as you just said, should that be hex, text, picture, mandarin, etc.

you would not necessarily know that there is a backdoor.
For an experienced programmer who reviews Bitcoin code on a daily basis it should be trivial to spot such a backdoor. Git is such an extremely powerful tool to review exactly who does what and when. It will be almost unfeasible to put a backdoor in Bitcoin, currently. This

Re: 'nothing is legally binding'
IANAL but I think it is probably similar to a signed email so it depends what you are signing.
If I sign a message saying:
'I will send you, Dabs, $100 to your bank account (your bank account details are specified here) if you send 1.0 bitcoin to my address 1abcdef... by eob 10 June 2013' and sign it with a well known address I control I think that would stand up in court.
The point I am making is that you only want people to sign things they understand and not encourage them to sign hex.
Why not hex if they understand what they are signing?

Aucun risque. Si tu crées une transaction concernant cette adresse sur l'un des deux, tu verras la transaction sur l'autre. Le seul truc qui peut arriver c'est que ce soit le bordel dans tes comptes puisqu'une transaction peut prendre de l'argent de plusieurs adresses alors que toi tu n'en as importée qu'une. Au final je déconseille les adresses en double jusqu'à ce que tu comprennes exactement comment Bitcoin fonctionne.
Dans tous les cas tant que tu as la clé privée (que ce soit dans ton client ou sur blockchain.info) tu as accès à l'argent.
Pour rattraper regarde sur blockchain.info si tu peux supprimer une adresse. Si tu peux pas et que tu n'as recu aucun argent sur ton client Satoshi (sois-en sûr... Une fois supprimé, point de salut), je supprimerais le fichier wallet.dat du client Satoshi. De cette façon quand tu le relanceras il en créera un autre avec une nouvelle adresse.

After reading through the last few pages of this thread, I think somewhere along the line it has gone a little off topic.
Indeed, the off-topic started at the first reply

Are you challenging Hazard? This will give one blockchain only filled with the computer with the higher hashrate

Did you ever think about including BIP 0038 into pywallet to be able to export encrypted private keys?
Actually no, I left before the BIP concept creation and since I'm back I'm working on several projects so I'm not aware about any BIPs. I know I have to catch up but well... That definitely seems a good feature to add. I can't give any ETA though, it will vary according to the demand.

I don't think it is a good idea to encourage people to sign binary data / hex. Only get people to sign text they can read. Couple of reasons:
+ signing could very well be legally binding. You should know what you are signing. + an attacker might figure out how to get you to sign a valid transaction. You just signed away your money!
Do you want to stop selling knives too because people can hurt themselves?

I run a tight ship!
if by "tight ship" you mean "can't handle criticism or competition" "you just changed 6 lines of codes and rip off retards who don't know how to code" This doesn't fit into either category
