New submission from bpoaugust:

collapse_rfc2231_value unquotes the value before returning it except here:

rawbytes = bytes(text, 'raw-unicode-escape')
return str(rawbytes, charset, errors)

Why is the text not unquoted in this case?

Actually I wonder whether the function should do any unquoting at all.
There is at least one case where it is called with an already unquoted value 
(get_boundary, see issue28945).

But if it is intended to do unquoting, it should be consistent.
