I don't think I understand. mode_line_noprop_buf gets the bytes, and
then we call make_string on it, so the result is the same as the one
you'd like to avoid. Or am I missing something?
By "settling on multibyte representation", do you mean that we should
convert raw bytes to their multibyte form? Or do you mean something
else?

Again, what would you like to have instead? Would calling
str_as_multibyte do what you want?
The reason we build a unibyte string is that the presence of raw bytes
generally means a unibyte string is desired; it's a heuristic. It is
also the simplest thing to do in this case, and always works because
it doesn't change the byte sequence of the original string.

See above: maybe str_as_multibyte is what you want?
