David Beazley <[email protected]> added the comment:
Why is it even encoding at all? Almost every other part of Python 3 forces you
to be explicit about bytes/string conversion. For example:
struct.pack("10s", x.encode('utf-8'))
Given that automatic conversion is documented, it's not clear what can be done
at this point. However, there are very few other parts of Python 3 that
perform implicit string-byte conversions like this (at least that I know of
off-hand).
