Barry A. Warsaw <ba...@python.org> added the comment: I agree that it makes sense to have consistent types in the output. As for whether to add a new method or fix the existing one, I'm a bit torn, but I'd probably opt for fixing the existing function rather than adding a new one, just because I think there are few Python 3 applications out there that are counting on the old behavior. (I could be wrong though ;).
