[IPython-dev] IPython, Python 3.x, pyout, data

[Dino Viehland]

Quick question on the data in pyout on Python 3.x.  It appears that when I get image/png data coming from matplotlib that the value is a string.  I can successfully encode the data with utf8 and then apply the base 64 decoding to it.

I'm just surprised this isn't already in bytes on Python 3.x, is there a reason why it's a Unicode string?
