[New-bugs-announce] [issue28426] PyUnicode_AsDecodedObject can only return unicode now

[Xiang Zhang]

New submission from Xiang Zhang:

PyUnicode_AsDecodedObject was added in f46d49e2e0f0 and became an API in 2284fa89ab08. It seems its intention is to return a Python object. But during evolution, with commits 5f11621a6f51 and 123f2dc08b3e, it can only return unicode now, becoming another version of PyUnicode_AsDecodedUnicode. Is this the wanted behaviour?
