Comment:
I confirm this issue as still present in Django 1.3.
In short, if you call {{{FieldFile.open(mode=NOT_RB)}}}, it will always
open in mode {{{rb}}}. This is due to {{{FieldFile.open}}} calling the
{{{self.file}}} property, which auto-opens in 'rb' mode.
{{{FieldFile.open}}} attempts to subsequently call {{{open}}} on this new
file, but that does not reopen the file again.
My suggested workaround for:
* {{{field_file.open(mode='w+b')}}}
is:
* {{{field_file.file = field_file.storage.open(field_file.name, 'w+b')}}}
