You're right, and I knew that, but didn't consider it in my response. I think it puts even more weight behind it being a bytes. The expressibility argument (it should support all bytes being truly random) of my options is still reasonable I think, but the readability negative for bytestrings is nullified, since you can just make the string longer when you generate it. +1 for bytes -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers (Contributions to Django itself)" group.
