New description:
Django 1.11 behavior (python 3):
{{{
o = MyModel()
o.myfield = b'123'
o.save()
o.refresh_from_db()
o.myfield == "123"
}}}
Django 2.0 behavior:
{{{
o = MyModel()
o.myfield = b'123'
o.save()
o.refresh_from_db()
o.myfield == "b'123'"
}}}
Could we restore the old behavior, maybe with a deprecation warning?
Either that or raise an error?
