Ever since then I've been anxious about changing to the new language, since it makes it so easy to convert from bytes to unicode by accident without specifying a valid encoding. So I would like to see a future where str(bytes) is effectively removed. I started working on a pull request that adds an API to toggle str(bytes) at runtime with a thread local (instead of requiring a command line argument), so you could do with no_str_bytes(): if you were worried about the feature, but got a bit stuck in the internals.
