I was searching along similar lines since this was present as part of the 
original commit : https://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/a4da150fbfd4 . I guess it 
makes sense to restore the text.

[Lysandros Nikolaou]

New submission from Lysandros Nikolaou :

Hi,

in the pathlib.Path.write_bytes() documentation it is clearly stated that "An 
existing file of the same name is overwritten." Wouldn't it make sense to 
include something similar to the pathlib.Path.write_text() docs. I had to 
quickly test it manually to find out what's happening as it wasn't clear to me 
if the statement applies to write_text() as well.
