Nick Coghlan <ncogh...@gmail.com> added the comment: As per Antoine's comment on #9873, requiring a real string via isinstance(source, str) to trigger the string IO version is likely to be cleaner than attempting to duck-type this. Strings are an area where we make so many assumptions about the way their internals work that duck-typing generally isn't all that effective.
