I made another quick&dirty test on Django 1.10 (I ran Django test suite on my modified Python raising exception on bytes path): I didn't notice any exception related to bytes path.
Django seems to only use Unicode for paths. I can try to run more tests if you know some other major Python applications (modules?) working on Windows/Python 3. Note: About Twisted, I forgot to mention that I'm not really surprised that Twisted uses bytes. Twisted was created something like 10 years ago, when bytes was the defacto choice. Using Unicode in Python 2 was painful when you imagine a module as large as Twisted. Twisted has to support Python 2 and Python 3, so it's not surprising that it still uses bytes in some places, instead of Unicode. Moreover, as many Python applications/modules, Linux is a first citizen, whereas Windows is more supported as "best effort".
