I hope it does not: Once we know it's really text, the code will call
decode('utf-8') as before.
Do you have a specific case in mind that I should have a look at? I
tested with
Python 2.4 and 2.7 on Linux, and it passes a full check + doc.
Well, I don't have significant experience doing this kind of thing in
Python, but
what I'm wondering is whether an "\n" written in to a text XML file in
binary
mode might make the XML look wrong when opened in a Windows app that
expects "\r\n".
