It seems to have been added in #1439 to fix #1178. This was only relevant for Python 2 where it was tempting to use str (== bytes) literals instead of unicode literals. In Python 3, it is unlikely that anyone passes bytes to these functions.

This was supported for Python 2 where it was tempting to use ``"message"``

instead of ``u"message"``.

Python 3 code is unlikely to pass ``bytes`` to these functions. If you do,
|

please decode it to an ``str`` beforehand.
