Has this change been discussed?
I don't agree with it. Unicode strings aren't byte strings. File and
Image should only work with byte strings.
Code dealing with them should always know and assume that they use  str.
Anything using unicode with them is broken or has done  insufficient
input validation.
I agree. This checkin must be reverted. In fact one raise a ValueError in 
case the data is a unicode string.
