[issue3156] bytes type has inconsistent methods (append, insert)

[Bruno Gola]

Bruno Gola <brunogola at gmail.com> added the comment:

The following patch fixes the behavior, .append and .insert will accept
only integer as parameters.

Is this really the desired behavior? I mean, why not to accept a
character for both methods?

There are two tests in Lib/test/test_io.py that uses the old behavior
for .append().
