Hi there,
I just tried this out with the future module to see what it actually
does, and I got this:

First the Python 3 behavior:
py3str + py3str = py3str
Yup, of course.
py3bytes + py3bytes = py3bytes
Again of course.
py3str + py3bytes = error
Yup, that's an error.
Then the behavior of when Python 3 str/bytes are mixed with Python 2 str
and unicode:
py3str + py2unicode = py2unicode
This didn't work as I expected; I'd have expected py2unicode for
compatibility reasons, as py3str cannot be combined with py2str (but in
fact it *can*, odd).
py3str + py2str = py2unicode
This in fact returns py3str, which I didn't expect either.
py3bytes + py2str = py2str
And this gets me py3bytes.
I'll get in touch with the author of the 'future' module to try to
understand why his reasoning is different from mine, i.e. where I'm wrong.
Regards,
Martijn
