Ronald Oussoren added the comment:

I agree that plistlib shouldn't raise an exception for data that can 
represented as a valid plist file.

I've checked that the Cocoa class for generating plist files will happily 
create a plist file when the data is nested 100 levels deep. In that case 
NSData values generate lines of 12 characters long.



An unrelated issue: PlistWriter.writeValue should treat bytes instances the 
same as Data instances in Python 3. That would be a (small) feature 
enhencement, and hence can only be done for Python 3.4.
